There are plenty of controversies surrounding Spotify, but what really made me cancel my subscription was the fact that they ran recruitment ads for ICE. Boycott Spotify!

The founder openly stating he was in it for the ads not musicians wasnt enough?
(Quite early on into the company btw)
I wasn’t really paying attention to anything about Spotify until recently. My bad. I’m trying to get better about researching where my money goes.
It’s not your bad. Most people are in the same boat. Excited for you though.
If you’re anything like me, you’ll need to hear the advice to pace yourself and protect your sanity. You can get away from all of these companies without mental turmoil if you do it right.
Plus all the other shit, like only paying artists spare change, hiring Joe Rogan to make an exclusive podcast series, pushing AI-slop music.
do you really think the avg user know or care about any ceo statement? people flee when it gets too expensive.
You have a point but you didn’t really frame it very well. I think you meant to defend the average person for not knowing how evil companies are, which I actually agree with.
It’s true that the average user doesn’t know better, or doesn’t care, or has simply given up. It’s unfortunate though.
