A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I like YT Music better than Spotify because user uploads cover the gaps in Spotify's catalog. Bootlegs, concert recordings, obscure game soundtracks, it has everything.
Agree on the gaps but I hate that YouTube music puts music videos in my mixes or only the videos are available in rare instances. Sometimes I'd be listening to a mix (bc I like discovering new stuff) and then I get a minute of random noises and dialogue from the beginning of a video. Granted, I haven't looked heavily into disabling videos or anything
Yeah, that is admittedly a big drawback for YT
