Seriously. They donated millions to the trump campaign and barely pay artists pennies.
The music space is one of the biggest things we’re lacking platforms for right now for sure. I’ve shifted over to Tidal for the time being, but I swear I’m just tempted to go back to local files at this point.
Yep, and I hate that because I want to support the artists and mostly listen to more obscure shit these days. Plus bandcamp is owned by Amazon I believe so even though the artists get more out of it, there’s still a Bezos tax.
Then there’s figuring out how to stream it remotely while driving or whatever. It’s a whole thing.
I do genuinely really like Tidal so far, but I’m not familiar with their company’s political stances or anything, and of course it’s not FOSS at all. Spotify is dead to me though.

Spotube is decent for playing Spotify playlists you come across or people send you
I quit Tidal after they dropped the Plex integration
NewPipe works if you’re desperate
I’m slowly moving back to local files. Though that gets expensive very quickly so you know what that means.
