Time to get out of Google Podcasts for anyone that is still using the service.
Google killing a product? No way
For anyone getting this news here. On Android, one of the best replacements is AntennaPod.

Ahh, another one for the ol’ Google Graveyard.
Every single thing I use gets changed, ruined, shut down, canceled, moved, merged. It never ends.
Wound up giving up and using Google podcast BECAUSE other ones I used kept getting shut down.
Pocket Casts has been reliable for me for years. I don’t even use their pro features, but I pay anyway because it’s so cheap. Highly recommended.
FFS Google’s killing another app I use all the time
At this rate I half expect Google Play books to be dead before 2025

Other than being relieved when they removed the podcast from Google play music (after shoehorning it into the GPM app for no good reason), I didn’t really use this much. Pocketcasts has pretty much always done what I needed.
Aaaaand this is why I didn’t move my podcasts to Google Podcasts.
Lmao. I’m shocked.

There’s a website called “killed by google”
It’s nice to see the giant graveyard of products they hyped up and then killed when a tiny percentage of people stopped using it for an instant.
They say it’s crazy YouTube could end. I’m not so sure.
Tip: just don’t use Google products
I was looking for you “OMG GOOGLE IS KILLING EVERYTHING!” people. They don’t have infinite money, stuff costs money to run and if it isn’t as popular as their other services obviously they’d shut it down. People use their products for free (monetarily) for years and then bitch and complain when something gets shut down, never having paid a cent.
