Saw this on mastodon and thought I’d share it here.

    Just today I had the lovely situation to get an ad break during two podcast episodes on Spotify mobile (Android).
    Changing the track does work but the ad break stays. BUT I could fast forward the ad.

    I pay fucking Family Prem. for that shit. WTF?!
    @The Haters: No, this was not a baked in ad by the podcast hoster but literally inserted by Spotify.

      I switched to AntennaPod for podcasts because of this. It’s also just a better experience - it auto downloads new episodes and deletes them after playing.
