I was a pocketcast user for years, switched to antennapod a few months ago. Here's what's bothering me:
There are also things that antennapod does better:
Best of luck from another pod-nerd.
Thanks for the detailed info!
In the podcast settings for each podcast, does "Keep Updated" not handle this for you? I don't think I ever manually refresh my podcasts. Apologies if I'm misunderstanding.
I don't like the queue myself, though possibly for different reasons than you. Again possibly misunderstanding your concern, but I have "Enqueue Downloaded" and "Continuous Playback" both disabled in the Antennapod settings, and I just pretend the queue doesn't exist.
Just throwing those things out there in the hopes they may help.
You're actually understanding my issues quite well 🙂
The "keep updated" works, but I try to keep it to twice a day to have my battery last longer. So I manually trigger in-between. It's a natural consequence of the technical choice, really.
As for the "Enqueue downloaded", I stream everything as I have a massive mobile data plan. Due to this, I can stream a lot but I still have to deal with a separation between inbox/queue.
Thanks for those suggestions, I'm sure they'll be of help for others that's not part of my edge case 😁
Ah thanks for the reply, and sorry I couldn't solve any of your issues. 🙂
