Yeah, it might be a slightly better app but after I switched I didn’t really miss pocketcasts at all. I realized that for me the most important feature was to be able to sync between devices :)
I like the UI more. It has the web player when you pay and while you can self host something like it its more expensive in the long run if you value your time and don’t enjoy it (so its not a fun hobby).
Why not just use Antennapod?
I use antennapod for listening but I’ve previously payed for pocketcast and I still think it’s better for finding new podcasts to listen to.

It even has multiple sync options (like Nextcloud), so I can keep listening on my PC with KDE Kasts if I so choose.
