It was a bad podcast app to begin with.
Google is doing their usual shit move of killing yet another product.
Google is doing an even shittier move of merging it with YouTube.
A company run by utter jokers.
My attitude towards any google product: never again.
YouTube is their only unrivaled product that I’m compelled to use (through NewPipe with SponsorBlock). Oh amd Android, but I use a Degoogling/hardening guide as mich as possible.
Other than that I’ve found much better alternatives for everything. They aren’t even the best choice for most services. They’re just the most convenient choice through established familiarity. I started Degoogling my life and never looked back. Don’t miss it in the slightest.
Another one for the graveyard.
Google is making easier and easier for me to degoogle my life. Bit by bit I change to foss apps and never look back
I’m so mad at them for this. I love the simplicity of Google Podcasts.
Between YouTube getting worse all the time, the insane bloat YouTube Music now, the utter uselessness of Google search, and Assistant getting worse each year, I’m basically done with Google.
They’re just… Too big for their own good that they don’t know how to make good products anymore.
Antennapod FTW
Another one to the big list of the grand G.
