I pay for Spotify for 7 years or so now and i'm so sick of all the ads. After every update there seems to be an: oops, sorry, you have ads now. Podcasts are filled with ads. I was just listening to a podcast where they shoved in 3 ads mid-sentence. How long until musicians put ads in their songs. I'm just so sick of it.
Ok so if you connected your Spotify account, then it should have your saved playlists and so forth in your library. You can stream or even download these tracks, just like with Spotify Premium. You should also be able to create new playlists/save content to your library.
It even has some features that Spotify doesn’t have. For example, you can totally block specific artists. So like for me, I fucking hate The Dwarves, and Spotify always recommends them to me. On Spotube, I was able to block them. (I’d have to refresh my memory on how.)
The catch is, it doesn’t use actual content from Spotify at all. Instead, it grabs these tracks from YouTube’s API. At least, that’s how it worked when I used it. If you try to download too much content at once, it will make you confirm that you understand that your ISP or someone might notice and take action, so … download judiciously, I guess?
I usually have a pretty solid mobile data connection, so I never bothered with downloading.
Same for the most part, but I will say I tried using Firefox on the Macbook Pro I used when I was working on my masters, and it was an absolute memory hog. I noticed during my tenure on r/firefox that most of the posts complaining about sluggishness or consuming massive amounts of memory came from Mac OS users, so I feel like I wasn’t alone.
just let people do whatever they want, wtf is wrong with you people
How are they stopping them? They’re not. But if you think that opposing equal rights for LGBT+ people is a good thing, then you’re a massive piece of shit, and we’re morally obligated to call you out for it, openly and repeatedly.
That’s maybe even good, same-sex marriage is not normal for most people, but anyway that has nothing to do with browser, even if CEO eats childs on breakfast.
Oh, absolutely! Firefox on Linux and Windows has never been a problem for me. The only problem I had on Linux is the flatpak version gets stuttery when I want to stream from sites of questionable repute, which I could probably fix if I weren’t too lazy to troubleshoot it.
