It's a great podcast app which gives the user a ton of freedom and tweaking possibilities, but it's also set and forget. If this is the first time you hear about it, the safest place to obtain it is the author's Google Drive:

You don't get much in terms of performance and capacity in the free tier preventing you from testing anything beyond the tiniest workloads. If you need to pre-arrange expenses with the finance department, it's much faster to test

To avoid sync issues it's important that Emacs is set up for both autosaving and reloading on external changes. If you add Orgzly to the mix for mobile access, you also want to configure Orgzly to auto-save whenever you open it or make

Last time I touched Lightsail it looked like a t2 instance rebrand without the option to pay for extra CPU credits. It grinds to a half if you use up your compute stipend and you cannot do anything about it. That's a big risk for a VPS
