    I only used Spotify for podcasts when I used to be on the road all the time. For music, I’ve had a free Pandora account for years now. Does what I need it too. And with wireguard+pihole I don’t get ads either.

      This is funny because I remember the days people HATED Spotify for adding podcast and only listen to podcast on their own separated app (I use PocketCasts)

        To be fair, nowadays several podcasts stopped issuing their feeds and can only be listened to on spotify because they bought exclusivity, it sucks.

        I like being able to queue an episode of something to listen to, and then going back to listening to music again. If it wasn’t for that, it’s kind of a crappy podcast player, yeah.

          I can see that. Though it’s been a few years since I’ve used it.

          Edit: The podcast id listen to were very long format/critical role episodes.
