MuditaOS VS castget

Maybe the MuditaOS for the Mudita Pure phone based on FreeRTOS is free (GPL) succesor ?

Hi, I watched many reviews, but they're from march. In the meantime there was many software updates: https://github.com/mudita/MuditaOS/releases/tag/pure_1.3.0

It can be done using newlib. You may apply for early access to https://github.com/mudita/MuditaOS, Pure phone’s FreeRTOS-based OS to see it at work.

Many people have given their "why," but I'll give another "how".

castget¹ is a simple tool that does exactly what you want, just add a feed URL and it pulls all the episodes. It has a nice catchup mode so you can add feeds that you've listened to elsewhere without pulling all the old episodes too. hpodder² is another tool I've used in the past, but I can't remember why I switched.

Depending on how much you like cobbling together your own solution html-xml-utils³ makes it incredibly easy to script a solution. For example, "curl feed | hxselect -c -s '\n' 'enclosure::attr(url)'" would list just the URLs. feedparser⁴ is a battle tested solution for processing feeds if you'd prefer a proper solution over a hacky shell script.

Personally, I use castget to save everything locally and then sync it to my phone and play the files with AudioAnchor, but my methods are rather eccentric.

Something about the substack migration created a hiccup with the RSS feed that caused castget to download a bunch of duplicate files with slightly different names. I can sort them out by timestamp, but some of them aren't duplicates... :-/
