I already have the desktop app, what difference should this even make? Pointless gatekeeping by the devs

    People who use Spotify for Podcasts already sold their soul to that company

    Lmao. Why should I not use the functionality if I already pay for it? Doesnt make any sense.
    Not like Apple or Google are much better.
    They are as evil as Spotify in their own regards.

    Your actual best bet would be to set up an RSS feed and download to your own media server and stream from that.

      That is exactle what I wrote I’m not sure why you cut the quote just before I say that those people should use whatever Spotify gives them.

      And Apple podcast, AntennaPod and all the other podcast catchers do exactly that they use the RSS feed.

      I really don’t get the sentiment of that comment.

        He can only view the first 100 characters of posts because he forgot to pay his subscription for Spotify Explorer Premium
