This project is useful for self-hosters who listen to podcasts. It allows you to listen to your podcasts via the web on your own infrastructure. You can also use the OPML export to subscribe to Podsumer's mirror of the original feeds. This improves privacy as download and listening metrics will not be tied to your phone or personal computer. Using something like gluetun you can have all the traffic to podcast servers go through a VPN as well, further shrinking your digital footprint.
The docker image is based on the official PHP Debian Bookworm with Apache image.
