Many thanks for this incredible app. Coming from an Android ecosystem, where every update spells certain disaster for native functionality, Antennapod is an exceptional and incredibly functional app, par none.
On this thread, what are other open source apps the community uses?
Are there any equivalents for news readers/feeds or music player apps anyone may recommend?
There are a bunch of good open source apps such as Newpipe, DNS66, or OSMAND.
However, I dont think this forum is the right place to look for such information as its mainly focused on Antennapod. You can try other places such as Reddit, https://fossdroid.com/, or the Fdroid app store.
