Well fuck me, why? Why oh why? It's such a clean and simple app, no weird shit and of course it gets axed. I think I may just stop listening to podcasts then, much easier than switching to an app I have no interest in.
AntennaPod is great, free, and has no ads. Pretty sure it's open source too.
I might have to check it out, thanks!
Open source indeed: github.com/AntennaPod
I've been using Pocket Casts for years. Works great.
I was having some problems with Google podcasts (which I used for years) and switched to Pocket Casts. It's been great other than some kind of clunky bits when trying to add to/edit your play-next queue, but otherwise I think it's a pretty great transition from Google
Yeah the queue is a bit unintuitive. Mostly I just set it to play the next episode of the same podcast.
PodcastAddict is my go-to, with the caveat that it's absolutely chock full of nerd knobs.
Another +1 for PodcastAddict
To copy Spotify?
Or to satiate the soul harvester at the Google Graveyard.
