PodBean has gotten shitter and shitter, randomly stopping play when not on screen.

Google has just announced its taking Podcasts out behind the woodshed so you can pay them for YouTube Premium to watch video podcasts in the background in your pocket.

I just want something simple, free or a one off purchase, that is friendly to copying Patreon feed links etc.

Suggestions appreciated, although I still don’t relish the idea of refollowing 50+ feeds again.

I use podkicker, which I don’t really like using as the interface is a bit clunky, but it at least is reliable and free. And I can usually find whatever function I think should be there.
