Introducing Messages, A New Way To Share What You Love on Spotify with Friends and Family — Spotify
Recommendations have always been at the heart of the Spotify experience. Friends and family share their favorite music, podcasts, audiobooks, and more from Spotify millions of times each month. That’s because word of mouth is one of the most powerful ways for people to discover their next favorite track. Spotify users have told us they...

And they still don't offer 2FA.

Listenbrainz is the best for discovery no matter what platform. Its opensource last.fm
The last loop I'm trying to close is notifications for new releases from artists I subscribe to.
I found this, but it has no documentation so I haven't tried it yet: https://github.com/provokateurin/musicbrainz-rss-generator
Edit: Nevermind, I somehow missed the Explore page in ListenBrainz that does this automatically (and has its own RSS feed).

I've been a happy Tidal user for years fwiw. The app is great as is music availability and discovery. I went back to Spotify for a while because I was missing its discovery features like discover weekly, but Tidal has greatly improved since then, and now features a daily discovery playlist (10 tracks, which I greatly prefer to Spotify's weekly 30), plus 8 custom mixes based on genres you listen to. Track radio is also solid.
Also, it's maybe the only subscription service that instead of creating new tiers, merged the two it had before into one, keeping the upper tier's features at the lower one's cost
Plus Tidal songs are easily downloadable in full FLAC quality for your personal archive.

I picked up some mp3 players with Bluetooth for about $7 each on aliexpress. Just finished acquiring my entire Spotify liked list. In my house, we're getting back on the correct timeline.
What did you use to acquire your Spotify music? They cleaned a lot of software that could do that a while ago.

I know you're joking but... They actually do already have that. So many songs have a short looping video instead of the album cover or static background when you have the screen open.
You can turn this off in the settings.

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"?

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.

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.
