  • I've been trying out podverse since another commenter mentioned it. I didn't know about it before.

  • Syncthing? How can I use syncthing to mimic the behavior of google podcasts?

  • The labels are from the perspective of viewing the space of all possible functions of element set size to operations, so they don't apply to any particular problem an algorithm is attempting to solve (that space is often smaller).

  • Not exactly. If no one on your instance has subscribed to the community, Lemmy fails to forward you to the community and returns 404. So the Lemmy way of making sure others can get to the community is to provide the URL. Lemmy has a lot of poor design in this way. It will be replaced with something better next year. Also, as a beehaw user you should be familiar broken ! links to communities that are not federated.

  • Lack of discovery is the least of my issues with AntennaPod, but that would be nice too.

  • How so? It has fit my use case better than any other podcast app in the last 15 years.

  • Some people don't mind watching syndicated reruns of TV sitcoms that have been sped up to provide more time for commercial breaks. I find that it ruins the experience for me. Conversations have natural pauses and cutting them out in a podcast similarly ruins the experience for me. Google podcasts has this feature and I intentionally don't use the feature.

  • Unfortunately, that will be a better experience than Google Podcasts in 2024. Always looking for better options. Let me know if you know of any.

  • With a small enough data set, bogo sort will perform just as well as an O(1) algorithm for sorting for both ascending and descending order!

  • I'm typically looking to entertain myself with a podcast and skipping silence would be like cutting parts of scenes in a movie because "nothing is happening".

    It's probably more of an issue with the cheap Bluetooth devices I've tried to use.

  • This is my main concern too.

    Also AntennaPod seems to be worse than Google Podcast at Bluetooth connections going into standby during conversational pauses creating jilted cutoffs.
