I listen to podcasts on two different devices, so I need a way to sync data between them. As such this relates to sync #132, but I’m also talking about the syncing of my subscriptions and app preferences, as well as having a cloud-backup of my account in the case of lost devices.

To facilitate easy account management, I’d love to see support for the open web-identity standard (among other things) AT Protocol.

I see you briefly checked out Bluesky some months ago 😁

The ecosystem has matured a lot now, and implementing atproto’s unique flavor of OAuth in a Dart project is greatly facilitated by atproto.dart by @myConsciousness

Thanks for the idea @erlend-sh - there's some good documentation there for me to dig into!

I'm following the progress over at the Open Podcast API - they are still open to discussion around authentication etc, might be a good fit for them too.

Great, thanks for considering. I’ll keep an eye on that discussion.

Yes, definitely worth watching what they are doing. Both Anytime & AntennaPod are on device only so have no backend infrastructure, but the AntennaPod project is well established. It would be great to have a standardised way to sync across devices and, potentially, different podcast apps.
