Spotify has no plans to pull the DHS's ICE recruitment ads from their platform, even as some on social media call for boycotts.

      This has been my go-to for twenty years now. They have so many great stations and their holiday stuff is really cool.

      Here to second SomaFM, listened to this pretty much constantly in the early 2000s before everything else suggested here existed

      Don’t know how I’ve completely missed this for all these years but I’m checking it out on my drive in tomorrow. Thanks for the share!

      Quick circle back - SomaFM rules. I’ve been checking out all the stations and they’re just all so nice to put on and chill to. Huge thanks for the rec, I’ve been sharing this with all my friends.

        Thanks for saying so! I’m glad to have introduced someone, and I hope SomaFM keeps running for a long time to come.

    Sounds like a stupid business model. They should keep doing it and see how that works for them.

    P.S. You don’t need Spotify. I’m a huge audiophile and I’ve never touched that shit.

      if you must have a streaming service YT permium is a better deal anyway. you get both ad free youtube and ad free music, plus any ringfenced features.

      That said, the algorithm on YT music isn’t as good, but overall still a better deal than spotify

        But I have ad free YT, it’s called an adblocker.

        And Google literally helps power genocide in Palestine. If you’re going to withhold your money for ethical concerns, Google are not the alternative they are even worse.

    Used this as motivation to switch over to tidal this morning - it’s pretty easy, and cheaper per month. And the transfer service I used had something like 99% hit rate. Not too bad for dropping a sub I’ve had for 14 years.

    I’m glad I never gave up my home hosted solution. For years, it looked like a dying path. Then I found Navidrome which is doing some great work building off the original Subsonic and the amazing android app Symfonium.
