I have got to admit I canned Spotify subs years ago - but how are they managing to grow their subscriber base whn it is now going to be £11.99 in the UK? That is way, way too high for what it offers...

Yeah I have been top member for over a decade. It is convenient, there are some things pushing me away though.

  • The podcast push, autoplaying unremoveable videos on the homescreen.

  • The algorithym pushing US style hack shit like what loser group of comedians take on politics is despite I exclusively listening to Australian comic book movie news and British Ukrainian war coverage.

  • Worsening UI/UX, poor offline management

  • Shorts/Reels

  • Removing features, from the running tempo sensor to family mixes.
