I'm happy to adopt a new podcast app if it has sponsorblock natively or through a plug-in. Otherwise let me know if there's some other way to make it work. I don't see why it wouldn't work as all of the segments tagged for skipping are crowdsourced which would also work for Podcasts.
That’s a pretty reasonable ad load. Have you listened to 99% Invisible lately? Each episode is about 10 minutes long, and it seems like at least 50% of it is now ads and sponsorship stuff.
Stitcher/SiriusXM has absolutely wrecked that podcast. I don't know if Roman knew what he was getting into when he sold, but I've either lost a lot of faith in his wisdom if he didn't or in his scruples if he did.
