Or just don't use Spotify

What's the best alternative? It's been a while since I used any of them. I checked Tidal recently and it looked like they have an AI slop problem too.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

I haven't had it be an issue with Tidal. Tidal doesn't have a strong autoplay algorithm so it tends to nudge users toward more custom curated Playlists. It has a buggy app, make it difficult to block songs or artists, and no duplicate filter which is frustrating, but I don't agree that AI slop is a very big issue currently. They seem proactive in fighting it and have always been one of the most artist friendly services.

I buy music (mostly from Bandcamp). Now I have a big library and no subscription fee.

I use Qobuz now, and they are great, with human-curated playlists and suggestions. So far, I love it.

Download your own music and set up navidrome. For music discovery, go to shows and find out about bands from the scene.

Or set up a listenbrainz.org account to get weekly recommendation playlist, check the accounts of people who listen to similar artists, and click through those addictive spider web charts that show you a bunch of artists who are similar to the one you're listening to.

There's also Rate Your Music, which I don't have an account at but it still seems pretty good.
