The sad thing is Spotify used to have a really, really, really good native client.
Spotify have been continually reducing their offering since inception. This reminds me of when they stopped supporting Djay, a djay software where you could mix spotify tracks. It was genuinely a super useful bit of kit.
Instead their devs waste time on useless features and UI rewrites that they have to go back and re-add old features to and never seem to optimise for performance.
- callesgg 4y agoRight super sad, it was the best native client I have ever seen, and they trashed it so they could make the interface more dopaminergic.
- interestica 4y agoDJay was incredible with that integration. It seems we are constantly regressing.
- bromuro 4y agoYeah… the removal of Spotify from Djay made me go back to download music from torrents :(
- AHTERIX5000 4y agoYeah the old Qt? client was great & snappy. It took quite some time to get basic features like cmd-f for the new client and it still does not support searching playlist by typing directly. Or at least didn't support year ago I still used Spotify. I wonder if there are alternative clients based on the Rust library nowadays?
