   #Goggle #podcasts #fail. Looks like a #snafu in progress for Google. Who would think moving podcasts to YouTube music was a good idea? Any suggestions on a podcast platform to use in lieu of Google?

     @ShiroTechGuy But what is a platform to you?Apart from not disappearing, what does it do? I'm using a standalone podcatcher and I don't know what I'm missing.

     @clacke Thank you. My primary focus is a platform that doesn't disappear or lose support after a period of time (wishful thinking).

     @ShiroTechGuy What features are you loking for? Do you want to want to sync subscriptions and listening state between devices?

     I think AntennaPod and other clients support NextCloud for this kind of thing, and I think there is some open source open source-friendly centralized service too compatible with e.g. AntennaPod. The Podcast 2.0 people are offering one such service if I remember correctly.

     @clacke My knowledge of #podcasting platforms or applications is limited, so I am not the one to ask. I look for clarity, stability & support. Google podcasts was basic, but sufficient for my needs. Perhaps I am getting old as it seems Google & other tech companies simply rearrange deck chairs on the Titanic & then claim success for improvement to their products.

     @ShiroTechGuy You're an expert on how you personally use the tool. =)

     Do you listen to podcasts in the browser, using a web application?
