DM me on Spotify: Spotify launches a messaging feature.

At that point I'd just say "we're not going to use Spotify any more" and switch to something else.
Such as?
I’ll start:
Tidal, SoundCloud, Deezer (has ties to Russian oligarchs so gotta be careful) -

How has nobody used to mention that this ALREADY used to be a feature they had before they killed it. I remember in high school me and the girl I was dating used to send eachother playlists. I didn't even know spotify had killed the feature until I went looking for one of those playlists in my inbox that used to be there.

I'd prefer it if they fixed the app so it doesn't play random shit and subscriptions and notifications actually work.

every platform becomes TikTok at the end.
Or Snapchat, or Instagram, doesn't matter. Remember memes like "Microsoft Office will now have Stories"?

Did a Google engineer make his way to Spotify

Listenbrainz is the best for discovery no matter what platform. Its opensource last.fm
-
Qobuz too. High-res audio, full CD booklets, metadata with full credits, pays the artists more, European but not run by Daniel Ek.
Does it have gapless playback? Spotify says it does but it rarely works.

I am not paying for this
you shouldn't either
I have to because my grandma spent so much effort learning how to use it and she loves it.

Recently ditched Spotify, and you should too.
Same! It decided 'fuck em all' and just downloaded all my music locally. It took some time to find a decent music player, but ended up with Musicolet, it's a fantastic local music player. The way I see it, I've paid for Spotify for years, so I don't feel bad about downloading all the music I had on there. Any new music I want I'll just straight up buy myself.

wrote last edited by [email protected]My post was not supposed to be that TikTok specifically is bad.
my point was every platform (that uses attention as money generator) would eventually be some kind of short videos which emulates pov of user (vertical interface instead of TV horizontal interface) that encourage "engagements"

And Stories. Don’t forget stories
What like in Jira?
-
what alternative did you end up going with?
I had a script to convert my main Spotify playlist (5000+ songs) to download from soulseek but...yeah that would take a VERY long time and I really didn't feel like being a soulseek asshole going that route.
If there was something out there where I can take my spotify playlist and just convert it and use it on another/better platform I'd switch right now.
I would gladly have you leech 5000 songs off me in Soulseek if it meant Spotify was losing a customer.
