I don't want podcasts exclusively on YouTube because my podcast downloading pipeline isn't equipped to handle downloading YouTube videos and ripping the audio.
in some attempt to maximize "engagement" metrics it's sacrificing intimacy and convenience that made it viable for the "bedtime" or "commute" listener in the first place.
If I have to keep my screen active to hear the content, it's really not a podcast anymore, it's like a hostage situation for my battery life lol
The other side is a problem, too.
