Pinepods is a complete podcast management system and allows you to play, download, and keep track of podcasts you enjoy. All self hosted and enjoyed on your own server! - madeofpendletonwool/PinePods
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!
Audiobookshelf (which is a great project that I use personally for audio books) is focused very heavily on audio books. With features like libraries and all that. I don’t feel like it has every feature I’d want for managing podcasts. Especially when it comes to searching and syncing feeds to things like antennapod. This project focuses on being the best podcast managment server it can be. It makes browsing podcasts, feeds, and episodes a breeze. Adding podcast feeds is a search away and that’s all integrated right into the app. This app is also built in rust rather than javascript. Which some people really like.
Audiobookshelf is a phenomenonal piece of open source software and if it does everything you need it to I think that’s a great solution! If not, this software might be a good fit.

Appreciate it! I’ll have to give it a check!
