Also would like to find a good site for audio books.

    If you are on Android check out AntennaPod (available in F-Droid). It’s legal and integrates with Apple Podcasts.

      AntennaPod is great but most ads are directly injected into the files these days. The best you can do is skip them when they come up. AntennaPod allows you to set custom skips for the start and end of individual podcasts though which is useful.

        I wish we had something like Sponsorblock but for podcasts instead of YouTube. Integrate that into AntennaPod and it’d be amazing.

        Downloading with Ukraine VPN works for me to get rid of injected ads.

        I cannot find the custom skip option, can you please give directions?

          From the Home page, swipe in from the left side of the screen. Tap the podcast you want to skip the intro of. Tap the gear, then “Auto skip”. It needs to be set for each individual podcast

      You should avoid services from apple. Apple is an enemy of free software

        Antenna pod is not in any way connected to apple. You use the internal search option to find a podcast or just add onc via url.

          That’s great. If you can, avoid apple. Apple is a horrible company.
