In the addition to everything the other commenter said, I would ask that you glance at the documentation briefly on the official site. There’s just a mind numbing number if features that set Pinepods and Audiobookshelf apart and there’s docs for just about all of it. Absolutely no shade, Audiobookshelf it’s a phenomenal project. But Pinepods is podcasts, that’s it’s entire identity, and it shows
Comment on PinePods Release v0.8.0 - "Mobile apps and massive perfomance bumps"

Sounds good. How would this benefit someone running audiobookshelf for getting podcasts, and nextcloud gpodder sync for synchronization, plus AntennaPod as an Android app? I feel some difficulty getting new podcasts into the queue outside of AntennaPod…

Fyi, there’s an Adguard blocklist for *.online urls :(

Can’t win em all :/ No matter what I do there’s always difficulty that comes from somewhere. Difficulty getting the app released in certain countries due to Apple’s strict rules, difficulty with people confusing pinepods with pine64s pinebuds and commenting on every post about it, difficulty with using .online domains now. I just picked the best available domain at the time. I really wish I had pinepods.com.
I’ll continue making the app the best it can be taking on one challenge at a time. There will always be blockers for some people for one reason or another.

I feel your pain, man. IIRC this is not a standard list. Just one I added afterwards. Keep at it. Seems like you are doing many things right. 👍🏼

The biggest benefits are likely:
The first two may not apply to you in particular, but I’m sure if you have other users that use the services you support then I’m sure they would appreciate having to learn/use a single app/interface for podcasts instead of having to learn one for searching/downloading (if they care about that at all), one for listening on mobile, one for listening on web, and another for managing their download/play sync.

Hey thanks for selling it! 😀

Sounds good. Thanks. I was using music assistant with my Sonos speakers, but I found the direct Sonos integration in Hass to be more reliable. Is there any way of getting the podcasts to show up as in the media sourcew in home assistant?

Stay tuned in the very near future. All that sharing, beaming functionality is very shorterm roadmap stuff.

Hey, I just got it running via docker compose. Gotta say it was a very smooth startup. I usually mess up my ports (I keep them incremental), but not even that. It was up and running in under a minute. I am currently importing my podcasts via opml. Themes are awesome. Hot dog stand threw me back a few years! 😄 👍🏼

I’m not too sure - I’m not too familiar with any of these services (including PinePods 😂). I know this type of feature is a common request for any audio related services though. I imagine that this is something that could be added at some point, but I’m not sure what the effort would be.
I don’t see anything about it on the roadmap for v1 or anywhere else on Pinepods’ issues. Perhaps the developer/maintainer @madeofpendletonwool@lemmy.world can chime in or an issue on Github can be created with more information about this feature request?
