In reaction to the recent news that Google plan to shut down Google Podcasts and roll it into YouTube Music, I made a couple of comments on the announcement. I realized that I should probably share them here as well. Any further thoughts will be shared in separate posts. Source: 9 months ago

I had no idea that the Panama Canal required fresh water. Peak price being paid for canal passage is $900k https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly92aWRlby1hcGkud3NqLmNvbS9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcy93c2ovd2hhdHMtbmV3cw%3D%3D&episode=YjkxMGQxZWUtNTYwYy0xMWVlLWEwODMtZmI4Mjg3NjRmN2U3. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

I've tried: - Restarting my phone - reinstalling Google podcasts - Using my second Google account (same thing) - Trying from https://podcasts.google.com/ on my Desktop. Source: 12 months ago

Do any of you guys have issue with the podcasts.google.com when trying to listen to podcasts? When I try to press "subscriptions", "queue" or any other parts of the left menu I can't seem to be able to press them! It's almost like they're not there. The only part on the left side that I can press is the hamburger icon at the top of the left corner.. Source: about 1 year ago

Thanks to those suggesting other Art-like podcasts, I will check them out. The best Art Bell podcast archive I have found is titled "art bell tape vault" even has a website. The audio quality of that archive seems the best too. I use podcasts.google.com to listen to them. Source: about 1 year ago

I use moodeaudio You can disable library indexation / update at boot Works pretty well on a raspberry pi 2 I don't know about boot time though as mine is always on... Source: 12 months ago

You can put (moode)[https://moodeaudio.org/] on the rpi and have an mpd, Spotify, and airplay server very easily. Source: about 1 year ago

- MoOde or Volumino - these pieces of software have images that can run on each raspberry pi. They will allow the pi's to show as airplay and spotify destinations. Volumino also has a snapcast plugin. Volumino also has a homeassistant integration for control from there. Source: about 1 year ago

If you don't mind doing a little work, a raspberry pi (2, 3, 4, any of them work) with moode works great. It'll do airplay for streaming from your macbook and MPD for playing your library off the sd card. Source: about 1 year ago

Here I think I can give something in return. Check out https://moodeaudio.org/ and see if it fits your needs. Source: over 1 year ago
