Musicians have long criticized the streaming service’s paltry payouts, but a new wave of boycotts is emerging
I started buying music in 2015 (mostly Bandcamp) and I have no regrets. I have a big library now of drm free music. Some months I spend nothing and still enjoy music, without ads.

for anyone this inspires to make the jump, i recommend Tidal and Bandcamp.

Looking at tidal, there doesn’t appear to be a way to search for music? Am I losing it?

Spotify doesn’t even let you into the app without logging in

Throwing out Stingray for people who often just need background music. Radio like music channels.

I set up a Funkwhale but tbh it is feature-poor
Which would you suggest as a selfhost alternative ?
mrdown@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Funkwhale needs in app donations to artist moving from a platform that pay little to a platform paying nothing makes no sense

Become a developer & contribute code

I was literally one day away from jumping onto Tidal, but then they dropped Plex integration. 😕
