Spotify is so ubiquitous that it always felt like it's similar to big US tech companies like YouTube and Instagram. But it's actually swedish.

Terrible companies can also be European, like Nestle. Fuck nestle.

Don't support american companies, but also don't support terrible euro companies.

Just in case you didn't know, be aware that Spotify took part in the funding of Trump's presidential campaign. Many in this community dodge it for this reason.

I dodge it because it sucks.

Even as a Swede I stopped using Spotify a while ago. That company can die tomorrow for all I care
