Agreed, not great. I paid for Pocket Casts about a year ago and don't love that they're switching to subscriptions. However, the parent commenter was complaining that the app wasn't free and that they don't deserve our money. For pocket casts anyways, I'd have to say the money has been well spent. I personally enjoyed the app and will definitely look into whether a subscription makes sense assuming paid folks aren't grandfathered in.
