AntennaPod creates yearly summary on my device
How cool is that?! AntennaPod creates a summary and stats of my year listening to podcasts directly on my device without sending it to the cloud!
My year 2024 in podcasts.
Syndicated from the fediverse. Read and engage on the original instance.

Shit, there's a home assistant podcast? I didn't need to know that
Here is mine!
Are you me? Pretty much the same except with Late Night Linux added.
Currently binging the backlog as we speak. They just hit Covid lol
There's a lot of different podcasts in the whole LNL package if you subscribed to the Ad-free feed. It's 7 different shows and a few of them are over 200 episodes.
I listen to the Late Night Linux too lol
I've not heard of self hosted or ask Noah.
What are they about?
Love the self hosted podcast, they talk about various experiences they've had (be it good, or bad) while trying to stop relying on big tech companies. They also try to bring projects to the spotlight and help people find cool openscource solutions. They get some fun guests in there as well.
Yes , I am the type fuck corporations , and let's support good companies. Like Valve not perfect but better than the rest.
I am very partial to valve myself, while they aren't perfect, I am not immune to propaganda, and own 3 valve shirts.
Awesome. Thanks for the recommendation
Self hosting , Linux and Open source.
Antennapod is highly underrated, even among Foss community. I have been enjoying it for 6 years and never cared for alt.
Of course it has yearly summary feature, along with hour counts etc.
I came here to steal new podcasts, so I'll leave mine as well lol
By the titles I have no idea what are those podcasts about lol
If one likes The Dollop, would they like BTB? I've been listening to the dollop for a few years now and always here BTB mentioned
Love to see The Dollop!
I like movies.
If you like movies I recommend checking out The Rewatchables if you haven't already.
It's heavily affected by the fact that I used to listen to After the Revolution to fall asleep (in a good way! It's a great book and Robert Evans' voice is soothing IMO), but here's mine:
Usually just binge an older podcast. I already completed HoP and HoP: Indian, Africana and Chinese, and now I'm with Citations Needed. Philosophy This only play when I accidentally start an episode lol.
After stitcher died I just stopped listening to podcasts for awhile. I recently found Antenna Pod on fdroid and it's great!
I listened to a ton when I bike to and from work. 40 minutes gets like 2 episodes a day, plus when I am at work
Love to see MBMBaM!
I love the app, but the summary was kind of shit 😁
Does anyone else use this with Android Auto?
Love that app, but can't get it to resume my podcast when I get in the car. Music works fine, the old Google podcasts worked fine, but I've never gotten it to work with antenna pod.
I've been using it with Android Auto for about four months now. No problems resuming podcasts so far.
I do
Mine works. Sometimes it gives me a "recommended" podcast from my list instead of what I was listening to, but I just enter the app and go to queue and select th one at the top.
Yeah, that's what I have to do.
I wonder when they'll have clients for desktop or other OS, that way I could ditch Pocket Casts.
What's wrong with Pocket Casts?
Not open source.Edit: sike, it is
Yes it is https://github.com/Automattic/pocket-casts-android
Their freemium model fooled me, it is indeed open-source
They went to a subscription model for using the desktop app... If we could buy it at once as it was possible before I wouldn't even be looking for alternatives, but I despise subscriptions.
Funnily enough (although I haven't looked thoroughly) I couldn't find a way for this yet 🏴☠️
I thought I could synchronize what I was listening to and where I stopped with gpodder.net but this never worked because I never understood how to use it, even though I logged in on both desktop and phone, so I had to give up the idea of listening on the desktop and I only listen on the phone. If I am at home I sometimes connect to a Bluetooth speaker to have a nicer experience.
I ended up using the nextcloud gpodder sync app, works a treat, there's even a nextcloud app for listening to podcasts in your browser, so I use that for desktop use.
I also use Nextcloud gpodder - it's been set and forget in my case, very easy. Use Kasts on desktop, and AntennaPod on my phone.
So what exact features does it have? I need three:
It does a decent job at all 3 from my experience
This seems like a good solution, but I also see it is missing iOS in its supported devices so it would affect my setup.
macOS/Win10, iPad, Android mobile, Shield TV, Alexa.
I use the casting/BT audio workaround yeah, oh and the subpar Alexa Skill.
Love this app!
Does anyone know how to totally disable the Queue?
Idk, I miss the Google Podcast app so much. Nothing else has come close for ease of use and car integration
What is the Home Assistant podcast like? More developer focused or end user or what?
It's end user focused, they have different segments like going through the monthly release notes and talking about them a bit from their perspective and they have often guests. The guests sometimes are random users with a interesting setup and they talk about that setup where you can get a lot of ideas. Other times they invite some of the developers or project managers from the project to talk about some new features or plans.
Great thanks! I downloaded a couple of episodes to listen to.
Here's my results from PocketCasts. Niche AF I'm guessing
Any good recommendations for someone into:
For Tech maybe TechAltar and ColdFusion.
For Linux I can recommend Ask Noah Show , Linux Unplugged , Linux Matters and Destination Linux.
'The Rest is History' is how I've been getting my world history. Great banter from two British hosts
For tech, check out Hard Fork.
I think my ADHD shines through with podcasts, I start listening to the first 10 mins then drown out whatever they are talking about and then just give up listening. It's a shame because there are many podcasts out there id like to listen to.
I don't have ADHD, but I have the same with reading books. I can read articles in a newspaper, but once I take a book into my hands I fall asleep.
