I use the nextcloud gpodder integration myself with antennapod (phone) + kasts (desktop) and it mostly works well with subscription sync and timestamp sync. It'll occasionally forget that I've listened to an episode on desktop but I guess that's just growing pains.
I've been keeping an eye on podfetch as a potential nextcloud-gpodder replacement but it's not just there yet for me.
I also just saw podcast merlin added to the supported list at https://github.com/thrillfall/nextcloud-gpodder but I don't use windows so I can't speak to that.
As for finding an alternative to the sync server, my only suggestion is to find a free/paid option at https://github.com/nextcloud/providers#providers that'll let you install the gpodder nextcloud app or use the oracle free tier to host something light like podfetch.
@darcmage oh, okay. Would I be able to install/remove/disable Nextcloud plugins on these providers or will I be limited on what they offer?
I have no idea. I think if you're a paying customer, they might be more inclined to allow installing plugins.
@darcmage Thank you!
