>That’s a crazy reason to drop using Spotify
That's like saying people dropping Windows 11 for pushing Candy Crush and TikTok in the start menu si crazy. Is it really crazy? I don't think so.
If I'm a paying customer I want to be treated with respect. If you keep making my UX worse to push your own agenda I WILL drop you for the HDD of "definitely legit" MP3s ready to go.

- bluefirebrand 3y agoI'm probably not the common usecase but I don't use Spotify for recommendations either. I hate recommendation engines in software. One of the first things I always turn off when I install Spotify is the "When we finish your playlist we'll just keep playing similar music we think you'll like" option. All I use Spotify for is to save myself the trouble of maintaining a media server and tracking down all the music I like to put on it
- FirmwareBurner 3y ago>You don't buy the OS for entertainment recommendations and listening/viewing/playing/reading. Huh? I definitely use my OS for entertainment but I don't want it to shove their own content in my face, same how I don't want that from Spotify. If I want to discover new content, I'll explicitly seek it out, otherwise GTF out of my way and play my songs.
