I also use Pocket Casts, the free version. I like it a lot, the interface is clean and I don't feel like I need to search for something better.

The paid features are access to a web player, more visual themes and the option to organise podcasts in folders (all of which are not that necessary imo)

yeah I still care very much about Tumblr >:(

sure it's not constantly in the tech news cycle but that also a reason why I love it. you get to enjoy a place with its own subculture and non of the "normie drama" if that makes sense
