spotifeed VS Retroactive

Good afternoon, Does anyone know if it's possible to listen to Spotify exclusive podcasts on a different podcatcher like Overcast or Pocket Casts by using an RSS or OPML feed? I found https://spotifeed.timdorr.com/ but it seems to be deprecated.

I 'm not a podcast aficionado, so to say, but it does it's job. What do you want it to do, that it doesn't do right now? Also about Spotify podcast, yes you can't listen them through antennapod but you can import their rss through this

"Into an ogg file" is where this stops working. If you program your own game, you can of course point it to an RSS file and change that file's content to change the songs in the game - and with something like https://github.com/timdorr/spotifeed maybe even point to spotify. But that game code would still need to interpret the XML file and download the songs.

If you happen to find one for the Snack Pack that’s something I’d be willing to test my shamefulness on. Spotifeed used to be a thing but sadly went away. I don’t listen to Dax Shepard but I know there’s a megaphone.fm feed that has been going around that oddly you can get right from his links. It’s like Spotify forgot about it or something.

Is it possible to have it create feeds the way Spotifeed used to?

Sleep timer? Silence trimming? With other podcasts, it's up to you to pick a podcast app with the features you want -- you can even pay for a good one. With Spotify podcasts, it's up to Spotify, unless maybe someone forks Spotifeed and fixes it... and then it's just an arms race.

there used to be and it was great. Hoping someone fixes it someday.

Spotifeed used to be able to generate RSS feeds for Spotify podcasts, but Spotify broke this for obvious reasons.

No need to keep Mojave to run iTunes — iTunes can be run on newer macOS, by using Retroactive [1] to patch it.

Regarding running a newer macOS on older hardware, check out OCLP [1] — do make sure you make full backups and have a working recovery plan before trying anything with OCLP though. I know that might sound somewhat obvious to a lot of folk, but you'd be surprised at the amount of folk that jump in and try OCLP on their main system without any backup plan.

Note that are some gotchas re installing OCLP on some older h/w, and it will help to read up on possible issues before wading in. e.g. during installation it might be necessary to use a wired keyboard and mouse, via a USB hub, until the installation is done, you might also need a wired network connection during install, similarly. Depends on h/w (I've not patched MacBooks myself, yet). Once the patcher is done, these should not be needed anymore.

Official support for OCLP is only via Discord — but there is a very active unofficial peer/user support group on FB [3]

HTH!

Or use Retroactive.

That said, my 2020 Mac Mini M1 also works great with the USB iPods - I used an app called Retroactive to get iTunes 11.4, which works fabulously to load my iPods. Can't say how well it works with the Firewire iPods, as I don't have all the requisite Thunderbolt adapters to make it work.

There's a project called Retroactive https://github.com/cormiertyshawn895/Retroactive/ that lets you install iTunes 10-12 on Catalina and newer OS. You could do that and still keep your playlists, etc.

you can run Aperture on newer Macs https://github.com/cormiertyshawn895/Retroactive/ just in case you want to check.
