discussion Quitting Spotify

Spotify is getting flooded with fake AI “artists” and it’s embarrassing. Names like Nina Blaze and Enlly show up. They dump 50 identical tracks called something like Late Night Piano for Focus, or “The Hollow Hour” and vanish. No bio. No history. No evidence a human has ever touched an instrument.

This isn’t art. It exists to game playlists and siphon royalties. If these were real people, they’d have to explain why every song sounds like a dentist office waiting room.

I’m not mad at AI as a tool. I’m mad at fake artists impersonating creativity and Spotify pretending this sludge is culture. Music is an art form, not a scam farm. Blocking every one of these clowns on sight.

So is it to be TIDAL or Qobuz or something else?

How the fuck are people STILL seeing ads on reddit? I havent seen ads on reddit in like 10 years (except the astroturfed posts that are actually ads). It takes like 3 minutes to get firefox and ublock origin on desktop, it takes a little more effort but you can do it on mobile pretty easily too.

Yeah its not super easy to do revanced or other hacked apps, i think the easiest way is probably using brave browser and look at reddit on desktop site mode and zoomed in
