dantheclammanGoogle Podcasts to shut down in 2024
wifepimp4smokesWhen Stitcher shut down I briefly considered this app as an alternative but I said, no. These guys can’t be trusted to stick around. So no surprise here but thanks clamman for sharing it.
What did you switch to? I need a decent podcast app… I currently use Google podcasts. I used to use castbox, but the ads became unbearable.
I’ve been using Pocket Casts for years. It’s pretty solid. Honestly can’t remember if I paid for it or not, but I don’t see ads and I don’t have the recurring membership option.
+1 for Pocket Casts
The apps are now free and open source. You only need to pay (monthly) if you want the web app and account sync.
It’s great as the free version, but if you were one of the lucky few that supported the desktop app years ago, the lifetime license is chefs kiss
Yep, been using it for 7 years now, couldn’t be happier.
A fellow lifetimer! All I wanted was to use the windows desktop app version to play podcasts. Who would have thought it would lead to this while everyone else just lived in the phone?
It’s a great app. Simple and clean. I left for podcast republic for a while because it supported groupings, but the PC added folders and well, they pulled me back in!
