As someone who aggressively adblocks everything, one of the final places that ads can still reach me is in annoying ad reads within podcasts. Youtube sponsorblock is incredible but it seems no one has yet adapted this for podcasts. Has anyone else managed to find a solution here? As far as i can tell in my googleing, this doesn’t yet exist. Anyone else extremely interested in something that skips/removes sponsor segments from podcasts?

That’s a decent solution, but unfortunately doesn’t have handy podcast app features like silence trimming, voice boosting, etc. Great suggestion though!

silence trimming, voice boosting,

this is the first i’m even hearing of these features existing, maybe I should take a closer look at my apps

Silence trimming is something you need to be careful of. If you listen to any comedy podcasts or storytelling, silence (pauses) have meaning and value. If you just listen to news or talk podcasts, its pretty nice to have. I have it turned on or off for selected podcasts, and it tells me it’s trimmed over 1 full day of silence from my listening.

Absoltuely. Definitely depends on what you’re listening to. Gotta be able to adjust per podcast.

Silence trimming causes weird stuttering on podcast republic for me. So I leave it off as a default
