I’ve been warming up to switching to GrapheneOS for months. Last month I bought a Pixel 8 (which is the buggiest effing phone I’ve ever owned, good job Google). I’ve just been waiting to have the bandwidth.
But with Google sunsetting Google Podcasts, I’ve decided to make time next week. Podcasts are a MAJOR part of my daily functioning.
AntennaPod is pretty great. They even have an article on migrating from Google: https://antennapod.org/blog/2023/11/google-podcasts-migration
Have you heard of Escape Pod? It is really simple. And I enjoy it because of its simplicity. Its on fdroid.
I like AntennaPod because it has a lot of options. Came off the pack of PodcastAddict when they started doing subscriptions (even after I’d paid for the ‘pro’ version) and that had a wealth of settings for customising every aspect of the software, and AntennaPod has that sort of philosophy as well.
Escapepod is the best.
It is paid?

Just downloaded it, loads of features, free and doesn’t have a premium option.
I was using Pocket Casts which locks few features behind a paywall and pushes it. I don’t really like having things in the UI that are locked by a paywall, it’s fine if the app has more features and an option somewhere to pay for them but don’t clutter my general day to day use with advertising.
