its finally done. I FINALLY cancelled my #spotify subscription. Now to figure out where else to go for music (aside from Soulseek).
Heads-up that if you don't like what Spotify is doing, you might want to get back to owning your music like back when iPods were fashionable.
It's not always simple, it's not necessarily cheaper, but it changes your relationship to music.
Also, there are still plenty of great apps to listen to your local music

Per sort no he de prendre la decisió de donar-me de baixa de #Spotify, fa temps que no el faig servir per a res.

Afternoon, Twters.
Having been somewhat disillusioned by #Spotify lately, I've decided to make the switch to #Deezer and it turns out it's really easy to transfer all your playlists etc. Took like 5 minutes. If you're having ethical issues with Spotify, now might be the time to make a change. I'm not naive enough to assume Deezer is free from sin, but it'll do for now. They also have a one month free trial at the moment.
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

The UK Online Safety Act has erected an age wall through the Internet 🚧
UK users are forced to accept censorship or hand over sensitive data to unregulated providers.
The government’s response? You’re a predator 🤨
Enough. Tell your MP to fix it now ⬇️

I'm your (not so) private dancer 🔞
Spotify users in the UK have to verify their age to listen to Parental Advisory music due to the Online Safety Act.
We're being infantalised for something that's already manageable by parental controls.
It could even end up in accounts being deactivated 🤯
Bad law makes for bad, incoherent outcomes. That's the #OSA for you.

Est-ce quelqu'un·e sait ce que ça fait concrètement pour Spotify si je l'utilise sur navigateur avec uBlock Origin ? Est-ce que pour eux j'ai quand même visualisé la pub et du coup ils ont l'impression que je les soutiens et ils se font quand même de la thune ?
Pareil, est-ce que l'utilisation de clients libre (sans pubs) pour streamer Spotify ça leur génère des revenus ? Est-ce qu'il y a une différence entre ceux qui sont connectés à ton compte Spotify (genre Spotube) et ceux qui sont anonymes/sans compte ?
Les alternatives de streaming musical sont actuellement trop restreintes, du coup j'aimerais voir si c'est possible de contourner le système et d'utiliser Spotify sans les soutenir d'une manière ou d'une autre.
Merci ✨

Delete Your Spotify Account.
It's far more ethical to sail the seven seas that use that fucking place.

The times we live in...
My partner want to migrate from Spotify. So, I wrote a tool call spotigrate 👉 https://codeberg.org/foxmean/spotigrate . I didn't write it from scratch but fork form TidalLister 👉 https://github.com/brandonjp/tidal-playlist-maker . However, I rewrite almost all on Spotify section to use simple request with API instead of web scrape with BeautifulSoup partly because Spotify only show 30 entities when you scrape by BS.
Spotigrate is by no mean perfect now. It's need API token and Spotify only let you request user created playlist.
