I successfully deployed MinusPod, a podcast feed proxy that scrubs ads from your podcasts, and I can’t describe to you how happy I am every time I hear evidence of a missing ad break.
For context, this matters a lot to me, because I listen to podcasts while commuting and running errands on my bike, so I can’t manually scrub through the ads like I do when I’m driving. I purchased a cheap low-power Bluetooth audio controller that I mounted to my handlebars to skip ads manually. However, I have multiple bikes, and it often fails to reconnect in time to skip the ad. So, I’ve been meaning to investigate automated solutions for a while now. I’d considered trying the Podly Pure Podcasts project, but it hasn’t been updated in five months. I saw MinusPod pop up on my feed, so I decided to give it a try.
