![]() ![]() This chronological listing is particularly helpful if you subscribe to podcasts that lack a dedicated release schedule, favouring a more anarchic and unpredictable “when it’s ready” approach. The app also makes it easy to see the latest episodes from your favourite podcasts ordered in a list by date (see the opening screenshot) through the “New” tab. From here you can mark episodes as ‘watched’. Selecting a specific show brings up an episode list with download links, show description, and runtimes. The “Shows” tab presents a immersive cover-art gallery for browsing your subscribed feeds by show title. Podcasts has a simple, straightforward UI inspired by the (oft forgotten) GNOME Music app. No such qualms here: ‘Podcasts’ is a native GTK app built with regular Linux technologies, and designed for the GNOME desktop.Īhh. We looked at Cumulonimbus (since renamed Cpod) last year and, while cross-platform, feature packed, and very nice to look at, it is an Electron-based app - a fact that put many readers off. Power-listeners often turn to mobile apps like Podcatcher, AntennaPod, or the iOS Podcasts to fetch, play and manage their subscriptions.Īdmittedly it’s not to listen to podcasts from your desktop, regardless of whether you’re on Windows, macOS, ChromeOS or Linux, because any semi-decent music player can double up as a podcast player (so long as you feed it a compatible audio file first).īut if you like to keep your podcast library separate from your music library, or find it difficult to keep up with multiple shows at a time, then an app dedicated to the format is certainly the way to go. Podcasts are a hugely popular form of “infotainment” these days, with almost any and every niche you can think of catered for with a show or a segment. If an app had a way to minimize repetition, consolidate common info, and refine how you find and search for it all, I think that would remove a lot of headaches.Browse podcasts, subscribe to shows, and listen to episodes, all from inside the app Podcast Players In General At work there are 5 different teams that have essentially the same info with slight team specific changes. Honestly, one of the biggest issues I've had with most apps I've used is just finding content and making sure info isn't duplicated. Block level content isolation, which can be referenced, viewed and arranged as needed on different pages.Extensible so it can integrate with other services.Easily add new pages through inline links, have backlinks.clean ui/ux (obviously hard to do well).Team authentication, permissions, and collaboration.So I've been looking for what features would differentiate a self-hosted alternative enough to get people using it, especially without a full dev team working on it full timeīasic features would probably need to be: Notion seems to be a sweet spot in that it's powerful and intuitive enough (not to mention cross platform) that you can use it for pretty much any of the above categories and more. There seems to be a few different categories that people/apps fall into Just basic, hierarchical notes/wiki Knowledge base/digital garden/zettelkasten Enterprise. I was considering implementing a self hosted wiki mostly for fun a little while ago and went on a wiki/note taking rabbit hole. ![]() Yea, there are some ugly looking wikis out there. Toss in some promeeetheus and you'd be all but set. But mgmtConfig is super hot as a dynamic IfTTT stack, and I'd love to see its rafty/etcd core used as the meat behind repo management. I suspect the people maintaining uyuni or if anyone picked up spacewalk from RHs compost that they'd not be focusing on the UI enough to swap out the engine, I suspect Itf that can be replaced with something from within that window after when people started ditching java and before npms were the bane of the security universe, they'd have an ideal web ui in front of cobbler's solid repo mirroring. Sadly, too, this one still has tomcat - IMHO the only fault of spacewalk being that 'run the universe in java' mentality despite it being a cobbler-based setup and that java was web cruft seemingly shipped rom an earlier project back when there was no alternative. This is what they did for United, ripping whole sections out of their OS offering and kicking the still-hemorrhaging remains over the fence as a code submission to United. Similarly, for uyuni, what I saw when I fell over this before was that SuSe didn't go get spacewalk and fork it instead they took their derivative and forked THAT, and now seem to be in a process of debranding and then advancing. Their code was garbage and, while it's been 15+ years, I often think of how they built and handed off software to go into United and I still shudder. Unfortunately, having worked on UnitedLinux, I really don't trust SuSE for much. ![]()
