  • Does windows call it “Android file system”? Because as far as I know, Android usually uses EXT4, which is also what many Linux systems use by default. But it could also be corrupted filesystem or dying drive.

    Try booting into a Linux USB. Linux in general can in some cases be more forgiving with failing hard drives, whereas Explorer in Windows sometimes just freezes until it gets a response from the drive.

    If you can’t see and mount the filesystem (preferably as read-only), take a look at tools like ddrescue (better than plain old dd with dying drives) and testdisk (to recover data from corrupted partitions). The “proper” procedure is to make a full disk image (or as much as it can read) and then try to recover the data from that disk image, so the potentially failing drive is used as little as possible.

    The loss of Google Reader is basically what taught me not to get too attached to services I can’t host myself. I’m hosting an older version of TT-RSS (due to migration issues to newer versions), and will continue with that until it no longer works for me, and then I will probably move on to CommaFeed. I’ve already tested all the commonly self hosted RSS readers out there, and that’s the one that fits my needs best, other than TT-RSS.



  • I’m not the person you asked, but I self-host AudioBookShelf (it’s a podcast manager too), and listen to all my podcasts through its app, connected to my instance. Its app isn’t as sleek or fast as Antennapod or some or the other ones, but it works fine.

    That way I also automatically have all my podcasts backed up on my server too, if the creator of a podcast I listen to suddenly decides to delete everything and disappear.
