You gotta tap the ad finding button to find the ads, it won't automatically do so. The button beside the download button.


I see. Didn’t realize that, thanks! Care to answer the other questions?

Explained how it works in a Reddit comment:

It's a full separate podcast app, so yes, you listen to the podcasts through this app, and can filter out / auto-skip the ads.


Thanks!

tl;dr is transcription + LLM + Shazam-style audio fingerprinting (to get around the issue of dynamic ads).


Made a menu bar app you may find useful for MacBook sleep prevention, even when the lid is closed:

Hey buddy, I submitted a pull request to you to support Intel chips

https://github.com/narcotic-sh/modafinil/pull/3



hahaha


"100% bro"


Love me some Modafinil. Yes, the macOS utility, of course :P


Fair. I guess it's just hard to come up with nice sounding names that are truly original like Skype and Häagen-Dazs, so you use an existing one.

Hopefully this niche macOS utility doesn't start ranking above search results for the actual drug Modafinil :)
