I mean fair enough, i use this version of Spotify and don't pay them a single cent: https://bestforandroid.com/apk/spotify-premium-mod-apk/

But if I was a paying customer i would be pretty pissed opening Spotify the first time on my 3 week travels and seeing this crap :⁠-⁠O Funnily there isn't even an option to change the location as suggested. Neither in the modded app nor on spotify.com on FF mobile.

Just like how a community centered around recreational drugs is going to recommend against taking drugs if it puts your life in danger, or a python community telling you to learn C if you want to do embedded programming, or a hammer community telling you to use a screwdriver on a screw.

You can see yourself that those examples don't align very well with streaming music right?

Why don't they? You're saying that a piracy forum has no place for discussing anything that isn't promoting piracy. I'm telling you that it does, because the topic of piracy includes the topic of when one should or should not pirate.

Ya lol piracy communities famously never discuss anything that isnt piracy. Like how every music tracker forum has the vanity label category with independent musicians with bandcamp links or like
