Every single time I use Spotify, after the first advert it says to enjoy the next 30 minutes ad free. Then after a 2 minute long song, I get 5 minutes of adverts 😑. Every single time

FYI: You can have unlimited advertisement free music if you actually pay for a subscription*. Or pirate.
*not necessarily true for podcasts, in which the podcaster could have ads baked into the recording.
Actually not.
I like listening to the WAN show podcast from LTT. Amd as most here prpbably know they are very keen on monetizing a lot on their content.
As it turns out Spotify has different settings between podcasts and music. And they offer the creators to enable ads (even for premium subs) inbetween podcast episodes.
So if you queue the LTT-podcast after a regular song, you can get advertisements before and after an episode.
You can scrub through or skip the ad but it requires manual interaction to do so. And hot keys like on (BT-)headsets don’t work.
I confirmed their existence with the Spotify support
Tbh I kinda don’t mind the podcaster ads when they put their own spin on it and are cute about it
Podcast ads are easy to skip. Still, i pay subscription to my favourite podcast network to support them, and it’s more convenient not having to skip.
