RIP Google Podcasts. I’m not a fan of everything being moved under the YouTube branding, a platform I’ve come to associate with terrible ads, questionable algorithms, and the promotion of misinformation.

They are going to announce Youtube Music Messenger app in the next I/O, aren’t they? to add to their ever growing list of messenger portfolio.

I understand the hate YT Music has for its history of being released as a big mess, but nowadays the app its actually pretty good. And having the podcasts inside the YT Music will help the podcasts that release in video to have both in the same place and interchangeable (is that a word?).

.youtube tld exists?

If I wanted to use YT Music I’d already be using it. Podcasts and music are not the same thing. Anyway…

There are some good alternatives out there, like Antennapod.
