I did the switch some times ago and I love AntennaPod. Still, I did not manage to have synchronization with a desktop service, and I miss that from Google Podcast.
Exactly, a podcast app must be available in all your devices, I tried it and couldn't stick with it because of the same issue.
Also it is the same issue I have with Pocketcasts because I don't pay a premium account and only sometimes I want to listen on the desktop.
This is my main concern too.
Also AntennaPod seems to be worse than Google Podcast at Bluetooth connections going into standby during conversational pauses creating jilted cutoffs.
Gpodder2go has your back.

I don't use sync but it has an option for "cloud sync" in the settings, "gpodder.net" and "gpoddersync" seem to be the only two options but maybe one of those will work.
I've been using Samsung Dex or Windows 11's Phone Link to open the app on my desktop.
Scrcpy now has audio forwarding too.
