As an avid podcast listener I use Pocket Casts. But I have been looking for something to replace this, especially to own my listening status and save favourite episodes.

Either I haven't tried it properly enough or there simply isn't anything out there.

My experiences:

Podfetch: Very very basic, can't get Favourites to work, doesn't save specific episodes into a permanent archive, couldn't get playing to work, no mobile apps

Plex: Cancelled Podcast support two years ago

Audiobookshelf: As described by others, performance issues (I have ~117 podcasts and updating takes ages), iOS app is Testflight only and BETA is full. Wanted retest with it being only an intermediary.

Your local bitwarden apps „only“ sync with your vaultwarden. So if you‘re not adding and changing multiple entries every day you can just endure an outage of a few hours or even days until you reconnect and sync.

That said, I am very paranoid about hosting my password manager on a publicly available VPS. The VPS provider theoretically has access and if you don’t secure the VPS properly everybody else, too.

So I make VW only accessible via a VPN (wireguard) and only host it locally on a pi. That is also backed up to another pi (Borg with borgmatic).

For me this is a good mix of redundancy, access control and attack vector mitigation.

Very interesting!

How do internal links work? I tried to link to the title of an internal note but it doesn’t work…
