    See also: podcast host says “here’s some ads” to avoid semi-automated ads from the parent company randomly happening in the middle of a sentence. Ads still appear randomly in the middle of a sentence.

    I’m still able to manage blocking ads in all forms of media that I consume. No unintended shifting of timestamps.

        Its called “not listening to those ad-ridden pieces of crap”-podcasts. Vote with your wallet and attention.

          Unfortunately, the masses will still listen, so myself not listening will do jack-shit. The real way to do that would be a service or app that strips them out entirely.

            It all has to start somewhere…taking the apathetic approach is not only not helping, but you’re a part of what’s making it worse by just accepting it.

              That’s just not true. There will always be ads in podcasts, no matter if I listen to them or not. That’s not apathetic, it’s a fact. If someone made a sponsorblock for podcasts, it would help immensely, which is what my original comment was about.

      How do you do it for podcasts? I already use mullvad Adblock dns, but that doesn’t seem to work
