Spotify has been garbage for so long. I left when the Joe Rogan stuff got so bad and artists were demanding to have their music removed from Spotify in response.

You can buy music and maintain your own personal collection. It was not as hard as I thought it would be and the quality is so much higher. Artists get more of the money as well from you.

I canceled as soon as I read about it. Have been a premium user since it was available in my country. Didn’t know about the shady shit…

Like if keeping Joe Rogan and making donations to Trump wasn't enough

So glad I have never given a dime to that fucking company.

I wish I could just make the music I hear in my head.

Then that would require learning one of those fancy sample things with keyboards and knobs and sliders and buttons I can't remember the name of.

Course it doesn't help that I can write music and all the fancy DAS stuff is basically magic.

Then I wouldn't have to spend money to listen to music that just doesn't hit right
