The post I was on 5 seconds ago was about imugur and how people where confused when they added posts and comments to the image hosting site. Everyone wants a poece of the social media pie...but we need the infrastructure, the websites that host stuff and do it free and efficiently.

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.

Zawinski's law: Every program attempts to expand until it can read mail. Those programs which cannot expand are replaced by ones which can.
This is just the modern equivalent: Intra-site messaging.

Imgur had the social media element since mid-2010s at least, maybe longer.

It's never free. The instance you're using isn't free; it's paid for by donations. ISPs and server hosts don't just give bandwidth out of charity or for the public good. One way or another, these for-profit companies are getting their pound of flesh, typically by selling targeted ad space.
The fact that these companies are adding chat features means they're now going to try mining conversations for additional consumer profile data points, which they can then sell to advertisers.
This new change is gross, and I hope nobody uses it.

They've had the first 3 for a while

Love that. How long did it take you?

Yeah I'll never forget the first time I saw someone just casually browsing IMGUR and I was like WTF are you doing?

No.
On another note: Apple Music migration tool will finally help Spotify users switch
Not saying it’s the best alternative, but at least there’s one escape route being built.

Qobuz too. High-res audio, full CD booklets, metadata with full credits, pays the artists more, European but not run by Daniel Ek.

WHY?!?
(yes, I know it is data mining, but still)

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.

Hot take: buy your music instead—direct from the artist whenever possible, or start building your collection from whatever you can find at a thrift store.

I am testing Deezer at the moment. To import playlists and songs, they advertise this 3rd party service, which worked for me.
