Despite being a shit company, them and apple music, maybe youtube music are the only top alternatives. Yes I can easily pirate and have downloaded spotify music using Spotdl but I also listen to podcasts on there and I don't want it to clutter up my newpipe or libretube feed.

Yea I'll probably keep using them, and advocate for better pay / pay artists another way
This is what people mean where piracy is a service problem. It's much more convenient to have nearly ALL the music available on each of the platforms.
I wonder if that's the biggest reason people pirate movies and TV, but pay for music and games. Not having to juggle where all the content is
Jack Stratton still has the best take on Spotify
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Great 😃👍
