Podfetch
Podfetch is a self-hosted podcast manager and aggregator that allows you to subscribe to, download, and organize your favorite podcasts from a single centralized interface. It automatically fetches new episodes from RSS feeds at configurable intervals, stores podcast metadata and audio files locally, and provides a web-based interface for browsing and managing your podcast library. The application features automatic episode downloading, customizable polling intervals for checking new content, SQLite database for lightweight data management, and organized file storage for podcast episodes. With its built-in audio player, you can stream episodes directly from the web interface without needing external podcast clients. Podfetch supports multiple podcast subscriptions, episode filtering, playback progress tracking, and automatic cleanup of old episodes to manage storage. The Rust-based backend ensures efficient performance and low resource usage, making it ideal for running on home servers or low-powered devices. Perfect for podcast enthusiasts who want complete control over their podcast library, users seeking privacy and independence from commercial podcast platforms, home lab administrators building media server ecosystems, or anyone who wants to archive and organize podcast episodes without relying on third-party services or dealing with platform-specific limitations.
