obviously VLC is a great universal tool but I don't think internet radio can take off without a great focused UX and as close to a universal library as possible.

re UX, the best I've seen is SomaFM for Android but it is locked. who maintained that stream database? I wonder how #PocketCasts manages their podcast search.

The third essential piece might be live chat.

I'd also like to be able to fedi share the stream and individual tracks.

FOSS #PocketCasts does a great job of finding every podcast I ever think to look for. I'd love a radio app that did this for #icecast streams. Being as user friendly would also be awesome.

A great episode but I wish #PocketCasts provided a better link. That would require most podcasts had their own website tho. And if I may be so bold, that the podcasters had a fedi account. It could be the same thing... @Castopod ?

Vaihdoin petivaatteet. Salilla tein selkää ja rintaa. Käväisin Prismassa. Viemäriauto kävi avaamassa keittiön lavuaarin. Koodasin loppupäivän.

TIL that #PocketCasts is available for Android. I always though it was iOS only, no idea why. I'm very happy with Antennapod, but I always loved PocketCasts, so might switch back.

@TeachrDigital @dkleeblatt Ich hatte die neue Version von #Reeder für mich mit Abo getestet und bin wieder zurück zur Classic Version ohne Abo.

Der Preis an sich ist ok, aber ich habe recht viele RSS-Feeds, noch mehr podcasts und hatte manche bluesky-feeds mit drin. +youtube…das war der Info-Overkill. Podcasts höre ich auch lieber mit dem podcatcher meiner Wahl (#PocketCasts). Das Konzept funktioniert bei mir zwar nicht, aber die Apps von @rizzi sind klasse!

I am enjoying #PocketCasts https://pocketcasts.com/ as a multiplatform podcast player. By upgrading to the + plus version I can sync to my Apple Watch with zero friction and this solves the problem I had where Apple Podcasts simply didn't want to do this reliably. You can only sync one playlist ("up next") but that fits how I want to use it. Also, it syncs painlessly between devices and I have it on PC, Laptop, iPhone and watch.

Pocket Casts desktop/browser app sucks. The app on the iPhone and Android phones are great and have tons of feature, the web/browser app is majorly lacking feature parity.

It sucks because sometimes I prefer listen on the computer vs. the phone.

I really like where @[email protected] is going with their app/web experience. The feature parity is there.

I do find myself trying different podcasts apps all the time.

My go-to apps are TrueFans.fm and Pocket Casts.

This is getting a little annoying. Every few days now I need to login again in #PocketCasts. Running the latest 2.1.0 available version on macOS. What gives?

#PocketCasts 、最新版にアップデートしてから?か。ストリーミング再生中に急に再生が止まり。何度再生ボタンを押しても再生されなくなる。😅

一度アプリ終了→起動して再生すると、また再生されるけど。

アプリの問題なのか?それともサーバーの問題??
