I just wish I could still download all podcasts without needing an Apple or Google account to do so.

What happened to podcast RSS feeds? Many are still available but it certainly isn't universal like in the past.

Ads again, I would guess. RSS feeds maybe don’t monetize as well because you can’t load a simple MP3 file up with trackers to verify that you are, e.g., not fast forwarding through the ads. Or make the ads unskippable. That sort of thing.
