too many valid alternatives and now that the ceo is investing billions in ai military companies it’s time to stop giving this company money that doesn’t even pay artists in the first place
I’ve seen so many people posting about leaving spotify, and I’m here to say the same thing after learning about the CEO starting a AI military company. Bye bye! Daydreaming about the CD collection I’m about to curate for my car.
i've said before but i will say it all again: awful ceo, terrible business model, TRASH AUDIO QUALITY, overpriced, i can go on forever. FUCK SPOTIFY AND FUCK DANIEL EK
After seeing that Spotify donated $150000 to the trump inauguration, pay artists nothing and replaced thousands of staff with AI I think it’s time for me to step away from the app even though it’s painfully convenient, I would rather use an mp3 player and purchase albums from artists on bandcamp (which isn’t perfect either) but at least a larger percentage of that money will go to the actual artists. I feel like 2025 is the year of choosing ethics over convenience because what is convenient for us is usually at the expense of others.

pro tip, dreams don’t always make sense - so when weird/bad stuff happens, you can shrug it off and be like wow what a weird dream bro 🤷
