So I’m in the process of switching from Spotify to Tidal for my music streaming (since Tidal pays artists like three times more than Spotify does). The only problem is, Tidal doesn’t support podcasts, which is another big thing I used Spotify for.

So what are some good apps for podcasts? I listen both on my PC and my Android phone, and I’m not really thrilled about the idea of paying for another subscription (so now I’m making two payments to cover the functionality I got with a single, cheaper payment). I’m cool with paying a one-time up-front fee, though.

Any suggestions?

Using antennapod on Android, can fully recommend. For other apps and platforms check https://podcastindex.org/apps

Ideally, you would donate to the project you choose :)

Have been using Antennapod on Android for some months now. It is by far the best app I have used. Feature rich and no ads is the best one can hope for.

After seeing your note, I thought, “damn, I’ve used AntennaPod a LOT, I’ll donate!”

If you go to donate they basically say that all their costs are covered right now, but ask if you can help in non-financial ways (translations, help on the forum, beta test, code if you can, spread the word, UX work). I’ll be honest, that level of transparency makes me love the app more than I already did!

Agreed, AntennaPod is the most feature complete podcast app I’ve ever used.
