I’ve been meaning to distance myself from Spotify for a while now but I’ve got a lot on my plate and their service has been very convenient. I’ve been paying for no ads since 2014 so I haven’t heard the ads personally but have seen multiple sources online describe them and confirm they they haven’t stopped as of today. I cancelled immediately. Not sure how many Spotify users there are on Lemmy but I just thought y’all ought to know what they’re up to. Spotify let’s you write a message saying why you’re cancelling and I was very descriptive. Hopefully they’ll back down just like Disney with Jimmy Kimmel.


Yep I’ve done a little testing with immich, that’s what I’m planning on using, just haven’t gotten around to fully setting things up yet. My NAS is just running on a Raspberry Pi 5 so I’m not planning on any multi-user stuff at this point.
