     Hi @podverse
     We're meeting on Wednesday 21:00 CEST to discuss Open Podcast API, this time with a focus on identifying episodes (and users' data linked to them) across apps. If you're considering building from the ground up with support for sync, now's definitely a great time to get on board!

     If you're interested, we'll be over at https://meet.antennapod.org/OpenPodcastAPI
     at https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20240424T190000&p1=16&p2=37

     @AntennaPod @podverse @liaizon @trashheap @semitones @benjaminbellamy There is a project to use ActivityStreams and publish this user generated data using ActivityPub across all apps. IMHO OPML is not the way forward. In Podcasting 2.0 Podrolls, Playlists and Publisher Feeds are using the RemoteItem structure as a means to list podcasts and episodes in an interchangeable open format which replaces OPML for import/export. But W3C ActivityStreams will be the best way to all app interoperability.

     @AntennaPod @liaizon @trashheap @semitones @benjaminbellamy

     We'd love to make Podverse data cross-compatible with other podcast apps. OPML works for transferring subscriptions, but the spec (afaik) doesn't have a way for transferring other things like listening history.

     I'm not up to speed with Open Podcast API, but we're considering rewriting our tech stack over the next year. If we can build from the ground up in a way that would be compatible with AntennaPod and other apps we'd love too.

     @liaizon
     We are involved in the "Open Podcast API". The aim is to develop an API standard for synchronising Podcast data. It relies in some (minimal) way on RSS. More info: https://openpodcastapi.org/ (there are more specs than visible on the website as/and the website is being developed).

     Hi @samsethi
     There seems to be a misunderstanding of what we're trying to achieve here. The Open Podcast API is about allowing a single user to sync their podcast app data between (instances of) apps: playback position, favourite y/n, listened status of episodes; queue content and order. E.g. if I listen to episode X until 22:02 on Podverse on my computer, I can continue listening in AntennaPod on Android. It's a popular feature request.
