Hahahaha I got a pixel7a TODAY and when i was setting it up it tried to install Google Podcasts, but I noped out for Antennapod. I did momentarily wonder if I should give GP a go since I’ve only just this week started using antennapod.
It’s a good replacement tbh. Pocketcasts kept crashing on me so I uninstalled it in a rage. The only thing that’s annoying me about Antennapod is that I only want one episode of the BBC news podcast but when I open it up there’s 3 there waiting for me, not a massive issue and I’m sure there’s a way around it somewhere in the settings, way better than a crashed app.
It’s very good. I wish there was a way to sync podcasts without hosting a gpodder server. There is supposed ot be a free site, but it doesn’t seem to work anymore.
Still not worth paying the insanely expensive subscription to sync on pocket casts though. I might try to selfhost gpodder soon, I just need to fix my internet so I can port forward.

Anyway I’m glad I made the right decision.
How does antennapod compare to pocketcasts? I’ve heard good things!
I only have an iPhone but PocketCasts replaced the pay-once with a subscription and that’s why I can’t recommend it.
I use pocketcasts but the subscription doesn’t have anything necessary so have no issues not paying
