Spotty what? Can't hear you guys over the music I am blasting on my Navidrome server
mpd and wireguard do the trick for me, but I'm a simple man with a nice uplink.
Bookmarked for future purposes. Thanks for the heads up!
I'm going to try this. For what ever reason I can't use music files for Jellyfin and I basically gave up on it.

ReReVanced coming soon...
And to top it off, YT Music stopped working for me, and has done the same for many others on some accounts (the revanced team thinks it's a/b testing from google).
I guess it's time to update my local music collection.
Had never heard of ReVanced before this looks amazing. I was just browsing their list of patches and there are some really great ones. Def gonna start using this. So thanks for sharing the link
The name comes from the original tweak called YouTube Vanced after it got shut down. Vanced is Advanced without the Ad, which I thought was super clever.
The function I love is the thumbnail one, because I can't stand a lot of thumbnails on YouTube. Even my favourite channels have to do the stupid faces and the arrows for the algorithm. The patch changes it back to the frame in the midpoint of the video.
Fucking love that one. Those thumbnails almost gave me an aneurysm.
The day revanced dies is the day I leave youtube.
I feel like we would just get Rerevanced in like 2 days
I have been training myself to use the Revanced patch API for when that day comes
I keep hearing about revanced, but I never end up checking it out because there's always another option. I used to use Invidious for everything, then I used Newpipe for everything, and now I use Grayjay for everything. I have faith that if Revanced goes down, there will be another Revanced in days.
Same, why pay when this also gives you sponsorblock, return dislike, dearrow, etc
Though I don't support yt ,Newpipe and forks exist they also support peertube and soundcloud

Streisand effect at work, I see.
Need to get tools like this hosted outside the US

Where to? Cracking copyrighted software is illegal everywhere except maybe North Korea.

I don't know about everyone else, but patched Spotify stopped working months ago for me so this isn't a loss for me personally, but still, fuck Spotify
spotify has always been shitty tbh; given the choice between spotify and nothing, you're better off with nothing
Their desktop app is so bad. Slow and clunky.
They desktop app is very easy to patch with Spicetify, I like it very much
Yet Another Electron Shit probably.
It's still working for me. But I've been using plexamp a lot more lately instead.

Such apps should be made by anonymous accounts. Good luck sending a DMCA to them

Soooooo
I want to get rid of my Spotify because the apps suck baaaadly. However, I have about 6000 something liked songs
How would I go about getting those off of Spotify and do some self hosting?
So if I’m not mistaken the route I took was to import my Spotify library to Lidarr > Let it freely torrent/download in the background (this can take a long time especially if what you’re torrenting isn’t very popular!) > setup the Spotify Import plugin for Jellyfin and let that automatically make your playlist an such however, in my experience this worked well for maybe 40% of my playlists (roughly 800 rap songs + 200 rock/metal) and the rest I downloaded with ytdlp and manually added in to my library, which sucked because it was so tedious but once I got it done I never had to do it again.
I got about 15k songs in my library all together but only listen to my playlists.

I wouldn’t expect Spotify to just let people use premium services for free. Fuck Spotify, right there with y’all on that, but this isn’t egregious or unethical behavior for them.
Use Spotify since it has a free tier, for music discovery if you like, but get FLACs and self host. I like Plex for that and it works with what I use.
Music is actually one thing I will always pay for. I use Apple Music because they pay artists more and they offer better quality. And they don’t care, if you’re on a family plan, if not all your family lives with you. I also self host because backups are nice and I can’t access Apple Music at work. I can, however, access Plex. (It’s not that Apple is blocked. It’s that Apple requires 2FA and I can’t bring my iPhone into work.) But, point is either way, self host and stream everywhere. Sucks that Plex went up; I got Lifetime for $80 years ago. (Now it’s $250.)
nah fuck them; they pay their artists squat but pay millions to white supremacist conspiracy theorist podcasters
They also randomly delete albums and state increased playcount by AI as the reason for removal, and they also allow random dudes publishing remixes on your own artist profile, because there are no checks in place. You can just fill out the artist name in a text field and publish a song:
The artist KARRA recently made a video about it which went viral.
(She also made this meme release up top to prove how broken the system is.)
So fuck Spotify in every way you can. They don't deserve the money, since they're clearly doing nothing for the artists with it.

Does anyone remember an music-app called Nuclear ?
It's still around, and it still sucks: https://nuclearplayer.com/
They should add support for Grayjay's API so that they could add support for Spotify and all the other sources Grayjay implemented
No but I remember grooveshark. Shit was bomb
