Hey all,
I’ve spent the majority of the last year hammering away at Pinepods. It’s a Rust based podcast management system that manages podcasts with multi-user support and relies on a central database with clients to connect to it. It’s complete with a browser based client and your podcasts and settings follow you from device to device due to everything being stored on the server. AntennaPod is great and all but sometimes I want to listen to podcasts from my laptop. Here’s a great solution to that problem. There’s also a client edition that you can download and install.
Search both The Podcast Index or Itunes to browse through shows and episodes, Import or export opmls of your podcasts, utilize the standard of podcasting 2.0. It’s all fully dockerized and you can have an instance of your own up and running in 5 mins!
If you’re on the fence you can try it out without installing the server too! Check the website for more info!
There’s a lot more to come down the pipeline as well, such as a lightweight client to stream episodes to and alternative database support. Now is the perfect time to check it out and enjoy continued feature updates! Feel free to open issues or PRs if you experience any problems. Or drop a line on the discord. I’m happy to help!

Entirely due to me trying to make getting help as accessible as possible. If there’s demand for a matrix server I’d be happy to start one up.
+1 for matrix

Honestly you guys have easily convinced me. I’d much prefer matrix personally anyway. I’ll get a matrix server up and running this weekend!

Matrix room is a go! I’ve got a badge created on the repo Readme to join so hopefully anyone interested in matrix will see that and join over discord. I’ll get a link added to the documentation site as well. Thanks for the tips!

This looks amazing. I’m gonna wait for pgsql support, but you had me here: “Otherwise, if you sync using Nextcloud you can use the AntennaPods app and your podcasts will sync between Antennapod and Pinepods.”
Pgsql support is coming very soon. Keep an eye out for version 0.6. It’ll be in there. There’s a branch created where I’m already working on it!
Good to see this works with antennapod, just need to get a gpodder thing setup in my unraid server and give this a go. Been using antennapod on my phone for the last several years but didn’t do backups and exports often enough and when my Samsung dropped and died I lost 8 months of data. This would make it a lot easier to also be able to stream on my desktop during work. Will be giving it a go here soon!
All the reasons you gave are all the reasons I took on this project for sure. Thanks for giving it a go! Let me know if you have any troubles with the setup.
Hey! Finally gave it a go this morning but ran into some headaches pointing to existing dockerized mysql and postgres containers on unraid. I reached out in discord this afternoon but setting up auth according to the docker-compose on the site and github I get lots of errors about missing tables or properties during the database initialization.
Hi there, I sent you a reply over on the discord post. Let’s continue the conversation there. Should be an easy enough fix. Thanks!
