Pinepods has smart playlists which sounds like it does what you need. Though I'm not 100% what you mean by 'alternates between podcasts starting with oldest to newest' but you can absolutely make a playlist sorted from oldest to newest. https://www.pinepods.online/docs/Features/smart-playlists

Can't win em all :/ No matter what I do there's always difficulty that comes from somewhere. Difficulty getting the app released in certain countries due to Apple's strict rules, difficulty with people confusing pinepods with pine64s pinebuds and commenting on every post about it, difficulty with using .online domains now. I just picked the best available domain at the time. I really wish I had pinepods.com.
I'll continue making the app the best it can be taking on one challenge at a time. There will always be blockers for some people for one reason or another.
Yep, it'll come. One thing at a time for sure. The android app just released on the Google Play store a couple days ago so that'd a huge milestone to that end.
In the addition to everything the other commenter said, I would ask that you glance at the documentation briefly on the official site. There's just a mind numbing number if features that set Pinepods and Audiobookshelf apart and there's docs for just about all of it. Absolutely no shade, Audiobookshelf it's a phenomenal project. But Pinepods is podcasts, that's it's entire identity, and it shows
Stay tuned in the very near future. All that sharing, beaming functionality is very shorterm roadmap stuff.
Hey thanks for selling it! 😀
Unfortunately no, admittedly bare metal server installs haven't been a huge priority to me either because the containerization sets up some very important context that would be someone difficult to do outside it. Like proper routing between the frontend and backend for example. As they are both separate services. So like yeah, I could get it to work with enough time. But the instructions would be quite long for setup.
Hi! I'm the developer of this project. I probably would have written up a little of what pinepods is and who it's for rather than a paste dump of the change log.
Pinepods is a podcast server that's self hosted. It aims to be a multi-client version of what you might already have on your phone that allows you to listen anywhere. Host pinepods and get a web client, mobile apps, desktop apps, even a CLI app. Your progress syncs between all these. It supports gpodder sync for use with your existing apps if you want (though I've put 100 plus hours into the mobile apps and really would appreciate people at least giving them a go) and it has tons of features. Think Notifications on release, smart playlists, multi user, sharing, chapter support, YouTube channel to podcast support. Loads of stuff, and loads more still to come.
With 0.8.0 the mobile apps are now on Google Play and the Apple app stores, and the api has been fully rewritten in rust. It's a lean mean podcasting machine. And actually the real current version is 0.8.1.
I appreciate the post OP but if you could, next time please add the above.
Oh interesting. No that's not currently implemented, but I'll absolutely get working on it in the features for smart playlists
