Screenshots / Drawings / Technical details:

This looks to be pretty good idea. webdav is well known, used very widely and there are bridges to Google Drive directly for example.

We would have to authenticate though for backups.

For backups, there is nothing specific to WebDav we would need to do. As soon as we support automatic backups using the StorageAccessFramework, they can be saved anywhere (nextcloud, WebDAV, Google Drive, etc).

However, synchronization is a whole different thing. That needs a dedicated server, not just file storage.

@ByteHamster I think the OP asked just for backup, not a full syncing service.

So this would be the relevant feature request on the platform where development happens: Automatic backup/export functionality · Issue #4850 · AntennaPod/AntennaPod · GitHub

Actually, could this not already be implemented without the automation requested on GitHub? I.e.: still manual, but save via WebDAV?

This is already implemented for manual backups. When exporting the file, you can select to store it using installed cloud apps.
