What do you use for listening to podcasts? (feddit.online)

I use Funkwhale for my music collection and had my podcasts in there for a while. However, I ended up not listening to my podcasts very much since they were hidden among my much larger music collection.

So I moved my podcasts feeds to FreshRSS, which I was already using for RSS feeds. I like the simplicity of using something that I already had, but it doesn't have any podcast-specific features like being able to resume where you left off.

Do you have any podcast listening apps that you like?

*edit: I should add that I originally meant "self-hostable applications for storing your podcast subscriptions," but these phone app recommendations are great to have, too. I might just ditch the server-side of this entirely and just use a separate app on my devices for listening. It would be nice if I only had to subscribe in one place and be able to pick up where I left off across multiple devices, though.

It is both a sync service and a client.

That doesn't clarify anything for me. Is the client application also the service, or are they (as I believe) two different things with the same name?

What I'm really getting at is that FreshRSS is self-hostable and as far as I can tell - gPodder isn't.

They are.

It is.

Oh cool, I wasn't aware of gpodder.net. I actually thought you were talking about the desktop gpodder application, which I had used before. Didn't realize there was a server-side component to it as well. Thanks!
