Spotify has a become a shit show lately. I don't like that the CEO is supporting a genocidal state, the platform is full of fake AI artists and playlists. Artists aren't getting paid enough. the price hikes and the app just feels so bloated with unnecessary bullshit. Because of this, I switched to self hosting my own music server (Navidrome, and Lidarr) and I use the symphonium app on Android. Really happy with that solution

Perhaps not relevant to the conversation, but if you use and enjoy any FOSS product, donate money to the maintainers when you can

wtf is happening to all the planes all of a sudden? crazy year for aviation

I never liked or trusted Brave for what it claims it fights for

LocalSend, Immich, Signal, Aurora store, Radio Garden, Gray Jay, yt-dlp, and Bitwarden just to name a few

I just got settled for fuck's sake

this is by far my favorite way of browsing the internet nowadays. if they find a way to monetize or kill RSS, i'm getting off the internet

usually my reaction when a website I visit daily goes down is to probably visit that website less or think the backend team behind it is lazy. but when lemmy.world goes down or is under attack, I sympathize and just open it when it's back up. y'all prove that you're hardworking by providing clear communication and explanation on what's happening everytime. shout out lemmy team, you deserve the world!!

the app feels really premium than any lemmy app I tried but the ads are a deal breaker for me. I would definitely consider purchasing it to support the developer but I can't pay monthly just to browse lemmy. Sticking with voyager for now

will reddit enhancement suite work on this? this is fantastic!!! good job lemmy team

please no!! reddit looked like las vegas with that award system. terrible idea!
