Dear Google, stop trying to make YT Music happen. It's not going to happen.
Just downloaded AntennaPod
I happen to use YT Music despite it sucking because I already pay for YouTube premium, and it seemed dumb to pay for Spotify or Tidal instead. Plus I hated what Spotify was doing by trying to combine music and podcasts into a single app. So naturally, a few years later Google is combining music and podcasts into a single app.
A few years ago, before Google introduced YouTube music, they had the Google Play Music app that let you listen to their entire catalog, download/cache the songs beforehand, listen to your own audio files on local storage (including .flac files), and subscribe and listen to Podcasts.
Literally was one of my most used apps until YouTube Music happened and they had less features for double the price.
Yep Google Play Music was literally perfect. It was incredible. And now it's gone I have to use Spotify and the world's most backwards fucking 'add to queue' logic. Get fucked Spotify. Best of a bad bunch.
@greyjedi @GamingChairModel Google Podcasts is being killed off and everything moved to YouTube Music. I won't be moving with it.
@rwaddilove @greyjedi @GamingChairModel don't worry, #AntennaPod is waiting for you!
@joel @greyjedi @GamingChairModel AntennaPod seems a good alternative. Now if I could just find the Export option in Google Podcasts...
@rwaddilove @greyjedi @GamingChairModel good news (for Google), you're stuck!
@rwaddilove @greyjedi @GamingChairModel you'll have to wait for their export tool, maybe on Google Takeout? Or add them all by hand
@joel @greyjedi @GamingChairModel I just read that nearer the time, Google will have an export tool. I added all my podcasts to AntennaPod manually. While searching/browsing, I found a few new podcasts to try, too.
