I don't know about all that - I can easily look back at my music library and browse through what I listened to 2 years ago. That is nearly impossible on Spotify (I assume on purpose).

I would urge you to reconsider your work/life balance. Trading 10 months for 2 seems like a poor trade. A 4 day work week automatically gets you 52 extra days a year. If you have flexibility in the day of the week, it's very compe

I do this! It's great, but discoverability/brows-ability is lost.

The more I use a streaming music service like Spotify, the more new music I find, but the shorter my musical memory becomes.

Alternative opinion: The design of the site is a welcome breath of fresh air. Not every site needs gobs of whitespace, neutral colors and advertisements.

The internet is bigger and contains more information than ever before. You can't passively explore. You can't go to one or two sites and just consume a feed. Think of interests you have, things you are curious about, cultures you

You don't have to buy it, that's what moral relativism implies. Ultimately I think you're arguing that the greater public good invalidates personal freedom and body autonomy. I disagree with you, as many others would as well.

I understand and that's fine. I don't actually care about where you work in this context. Human Rights are special things. They aren't preferences. The more you conflate the two, the more you erode your position and the term

I don't know that I would classify "rendering someone else's feature" a responsibility of iOS 15 or Safari.

Why is this a regression in iOS? Changing the user-agent string is not a regression.

The cable is not Apple's fault. One of the reasons I like the Apple ecosystem is that I trust that they protect me from insanity like this. It's probably inevitable that they go all-in on USB in some form or fashion, but I hope th
