First xmanager went away and I was devastated

Now revanced Spotify doesn't seem to work and I feel defeated.

I feel the cat and mouse game with spotify has caught up and I should just ditch Spotify altogether. Do you guys have any solutions?

It’s never been so easy to download music. Soulseek, yt-dlp, torrents for older stuff, spotify downloader websites etc. I still have spotify but I started growing my local music collection a few years ago. Considering canceling my spotify subscription.

Is there any guide on how Soulseek works? I don't really understand how to use it and how it works

Can yt-dlp download lossless formats or is it just mp3?

It's more like the old school file sharing networks of like napster and emule. You give it a directory to share and it makes files in those directories available to download on the network and you can download what other people are sharing.
