I'm looking for a preferably non-web wrapper podcast player for Windows, that's preferably also open source. Having a tough time though. Any tips?

+1 for gpodder, and of you have a Nextcloud, you can sync your subscriptions using an NC plugin that I can't remember the name of.

Cool, too bad I shut down my NC server a while ago...

I did check it out earlier but feels a bit clunky that it must run the audio stream in a separate program. This means it'll inherently lack some functions like going back or forward 15 seconds with the press of a button as this is a function mostly inherent to podcast players, not e.g. VLC. Not the biggest issue but still.

I think VLC skips a number of seconds using the arrow keys when the window is in focus, though I'm not sure if the duration can be changed?
