5 minute ad breaks every 15 minutes kinda ruin the experience.

I really want podcast apps to hook into SponsorBlock.

Right now I'm listening to very few English podcasts because of all the advertisement. I switched to German and Swedish because most of them don't have any advertisement in them.

I really just want a podcast app that replaces Pocket Casts (I use the free version).

What I look is a client that works with pretty much all the possible gadgets (even a damn Amazon Alexa) and have Sync between all of them).

Pocket Casts does this to me but the Alexa client is kinda broken (it never saves/sync the progress) and the PC client is behind the paywall.

Spotify is a close one for what I want... But I just don't like it.

There is a paid version of pocket casts?

Subscription only mode I think.... A huge nope for me.

I used it for one year(yes, I paid sigh) but ultimately didn't see value in it. Subscription model doesn't make sense for a podcast app and I mostly listened to on mobile eitherways, so I switched to Antennapod recently. I tried a couple of other alternatives including Podcast Republic but those seem a little too bloated in terms of features.
