For podcasts I had expected the Previous/Forward media keys to work differently on my mac. I wanted it to skip 15secs forward/backwards using the media keys, but instead spotify skips the entire podcast.
This Idea suggests that is was implemented and working, but it's not working here.

Hey there @MrFranks!
Thanks for reaching out to us about this and sorry for the delayed reply.
You can fast forward/rewind both podcast episodes and songs using the arrow keys and holding Shift at the same time.
Hope this info helps. Let us know if have trouble with this and we'll see what else we can suggest.
Take care!

We've gone ahead and edited the idea in order to avoid further confusion. We appreciate you pointing this out to us and we apologize for the misunderstanding.
One of our Rockstars has created a new idea for the implementation of the feature on desktop and we recommend leaving a +Vote and subscribing to the thread for updates.
We'll be here if there's anything else that we can do for you!
