I’d love to have it on F-Droid. Pinepods 100% checks all the boxes needed to be on F-Droid. They’ve stopped responding to me though: gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/…/24866 It’s been rather frustrating. It will be on the IzzyOnDroid alternate F-Droid repo though as soon as 0.8.0 is out. And I’ll continue to make an effort to get it on F-Droid ASAP. Nothing I can do if they aren’t responding though.

And yep, the android/ios clients support local downloads in addition to the server downloads. So do the desktop clients. You are correct that currently local downloads only support one episode at a time though. That is on the list to change. All in due time, it’s a brand new app. :)
