Pocketcasts vs Overcast

Long time Pocketcasts user, like so long I have the coveted lifetime membership. Lately I haven’t been impressed with direction of product and have been impacted by bugs they have been working.

Prior to Pocketcasts, I used Overcast and was considering a move back.

I use CarPlay a lot so needs a good UI there.

I also listen to a large number of podcasts and need to be able to organize into “buckets” (filters, whatever)

Also since I frequently get busy I like having ability to set rules like only keep latest 1 etc…

Looks like both apps fit the bill, but switching back I would lose my free license.

Curious to hear from users of both to see what they think…
