Where or what apps are you using to listen podcasts and still protect your privacy?

I just use Google Podcasts.

Have you considered switching to a more privacy-friendly and open-source alternative like AntennaPod?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not really, to be completely honest. I'm still too deep in the Google ecosystem.

That doesn't make much sense to me, RSS is a standard, you should be able to swap out one podcast client for another. What are the barriers?

I'm lazy, and I already use Google Podcasts to keep track of what I've listened to already. Other than a client, I would also need to self-host something, so that I can continue my listening seamlessly (with synched progress) from multiple devices, including web browser on desktop, as I mentioned in a different comment.

You can sync AntennaPod with the public instance of gpodder.net.
