I also recommend AntennaPod, I use it daily and it works great for a FOSS app. I've always found any podcast I've looked for, I'm not sure how the search engine works, but it works great.

Thanks. How does that work though? iTunes points it to the RSS feed of the individual results?

And do you know if there are any privacy risks associated with depending on iTunes?

AntennaPod for Android available through FDroid is pretty good if you're after Foss.

Personall, for me the best podcast app os Pocket cast, multi-platform and web browser option.

I went with Antennapod and it seems good so far. It couldn't find one of the podcasts I liked by name, but when I searched for category it showed up. The rest were all found. Thank you all.

Not FOSS but I like Pocket Casts, I needed one with a good queue feature because procrastination, and this one I liked the most.

Oh damn, thanks for the heads-up, good thing I don't pay for it... So I'm good to go yet...unless they begin to butcher free version like Evernote and IFTTT did.

I used this for a while, but it's not FOSS and paywalls desktop/web apps. The paywall is also stupidly outpriced.

I switched to open instance of antennapod + nextcloud gpodder sync

On android Antennapod if you want open source, podcast addict if you want total control. The latter has settings/options for everything (when to download what, fine tuneable playlists, etc.), but is not what I would call user friendly.

I use pocket casts. Has worked well for me for last several years.

Sorry realize now you wanted open source.
