I quit Spotify the other day too. I pay for tidal nowadays. I don’t like running widevine on my machine so I rip flacs with tidal-dl. Honestly, great stuff. Would recommend.
I wanted to like Tidal, but its music discovery isn't great. It builds great lists of music you might like, but then they never change, and you end up hearing the same music over and over, with little change.
As someone who doesn't listen to playlists much, it was frustrating. But spotify isn't much better there either...
I haven't found a good service for music discovery. My best option so far is just searching for stuff, like:
And so on, and then I filter by listening to a couple popular tracks by that band. That's a really crappy way to go, but it seems like it works better than Spotify et al.
