    Sooo, are people not mashing that forward button until they hit podcast again?

      I’m almost always listening to podcasts while doing things like driving, exercising, or biking, so no I can’t really dick around with my phone to skip stuff easily most of the time.

        I recently discovered, the “next track” button on my steering wheel is not actually “next track” but “skip 30sec” in the podcast app (AntennaPod). Absolute game changer. I skip all sponsors now! YMMW depending on the app.

        I had the same problem until I got a PineTime watch. Now I can use the navigation buttons on the watch face to skip ads (safely and responsibly, of course).

            A little. I had a pebble until the company got bought and killed.

            I want to see enough people buy a PineTime that they succeed, so I can get another one when my current one dies.
