I listened to podcasts on Antennapod for years. It's open source and free, but there are many other podcast platforms. Used Pocket Cast before too, very good, licensed under MPL 2.0. Those services don't have Spotify exclusive, but have all others.

Edit: corrected mistake about Pocket Cast.

Pocket Casts isn't proprietary, it's licensed under the MPL 2.0

Thank.you for the correction! I'll fix it in my comment too.

Thanks! (And I should say, it was a genuine question :-)). I'll take a look at them; I don't listen to any Spotify exclusives (yay!), but there are one or two that I subscribe to their supporter schemes and at the moment I do that through Spotify. I guess that's my next task, work out if there's a way to subscribe directly and use something like Antennapod.
