I´ve been a huge consumer of the great invention of podcasts. In fact, I am now listing almost exclusive on podcasts – not music. Dramatic change for me, but I like it. In the old days, radio was my thing, so it kind of reminds me of that.
The main platform for several years, was Apple Podcast. But after moving over from Apple-fanboy number 1, to Go Go GrapheneOS three years ago, I started to replace app by app, with privacy in mind. Suddenly I stumbled upon AntennaPod when looking for a podcast app alternative to Spotify, and boy did that make it for me. From Apple Podcast, to Spotify and their podcast service, to AntennaPod.
Here is how the project behind AntennaPod describes themselves:
“The Open Podcast Player
AntennaPod is a podcast player that is completely open. The app is open-source and you can subscribe to any RSS feed. AntennaPod is built by volunteers without commercial interest, so it respects your privacy while giving you full control.”
