    This is why Google will forever be behind Apple. Any app that can’t be monetised gets killed. Why give Android users a stable ecosystem after all? Fuck the users. Google fucking sucks.

      To be fair the Apple podcast app kind of sucks too, its just the most convenient one to use since it comes pre installed.

        It’s more the principal that Google doesn’t care about their ecosystem or users. There would be uproar if Apple killed their podcasts app, since it has been around for so long. But Android users are just used to this shit now.

          My preferred podcast app (stitcher) shit down in August and I was about to move to google podcasts.

          I am an idiot.
