Spotify has been pissing me off recently. Repeated pop up (internal) ads, and now this. Are there any alternatives that don't require selfhosting?

Cherry on the top: The new widget doesn't work.

It's bigger so they can show far more things for you to click on.

OpenTune

Except there are actually fewer things it shows. The previous track button is missing, for one

Never said they were useful things :P

Cool, checking it out! Do you know if there's a way to import my playlists?

Edit: No widget :(

I use Apple Music on my phone and YouTube Music in my car and they work fine for me. No ads and so far nothing AI. YMMV.

Lol another youtube music client

It is almost a meme how many there are

Do you know if there's a way to import my playlists?

I don't think that's possible since this is a YouTube Music client rather than a Spotify one.

Edit: No widget :(

I'm sorry, didn't see if it got a widget. Anyway there's Metrolist (which is basically a fork (the same app but modified)) that got 4 widgets.

It's because the og one got discontinued and people made a LOT of forks.

Thanks, trying it out. Looks like there's 3rd party tools to import Spotify playlists into YT Music

This streaming service is supposedly better to their artists than spotify https://www.qobuz.com/us-en/discover

Unfortunately, they don't seem to have discovered regional pricing.

fill your sd card with mp3s ripped from youtube like the olden days

Not enough ads and user data tracking in the old version?

I was going to suggest revanced, but it looks like a DMCA killed that and no replacement has been made.
