This means I can’t skip to the next podcast as soon as they’re done, I instead have to use the “fast forward 30s” button to see if there’s any other content. And then inevitably I’ll press that button with 29s to go and it will jump to the next episode, losing where I was up to. So if I do want those last crumbs of content, I have to return to it manually.
Get rid of your fomo. If they put content beyond the end of the podcast it’s not getting heard and they are the ones losing out. Don’t be the slave of the system.
