@menelion @patricus windows and android together will be a challenge. Maybe with 1 that supports web playback on PC?

@JStark @menelion web is fine but no pocket casts as that is ran by shitty ableist company that locks people out of their own stuff.

@patricus @Tamasg PocketCasts!

@patricus @Tamasg You can use the native mobile app and it syncs with the web player (which isn't bad) or a native windows app (It is an electron app if I remember right).

@tsquires @Tamasg yeah, it is made by the same people that locked me out of my own website, no thanks.

@patricus I am using gpodder app for nextcloud. It acts as my self-hosted server side component for syncing various podcasting apps. On android I'm using antennapod, on gnome I'm using gnome-podcasts that have recently added gpodder sync support into the nightly version.
I think there might be some windows clients supporting this however I haven't checked these windows apps for screen reader accessibility.

@pvagner yeah, that'd not work due to gPodder's official app using gtk and gtk being, let's say, sight-first and ableism-first

@patricus Yes gpodder won't work on windows with a screen reader but there are other 3rd party apps running on windows. Are all of them inaccessible to screen reader users on windows?

@pvagner as far as I know, that's the only one.

@pvagner opensource is so meh.
