@cblgh I recently got all my music off of cloud hosting and moved back to manual management of my collection and it's been so good, I am actually actively listening to music again for the first time in like 8 years
@darius niiiiice~ the lethargy that spotify put me into over the years wrt music is so unsettling
@cblgh have you read Liz Pelly on Spotify? Absolutely brilliant stuff
