    I totally agree with you. Especially since they tried to take down Anna’s archive…

    Anyway, besides that, this remains very instructing.

      Call me out of touch all you want. I have big sd cards, and mp3 files. No ads. No subscriptions. No bullshit.

        And that is less energy consuming too!!

        I am socked by the sheer amont of energy needed by streaming platforms (Spotify and others) but nobody seems to care.

        By the way there is a telegram bot that allows you to download anything you want from Spotify. And then you own the files forever… no more connection needed.

        I have a bunch of TBs in a NAS and jellyfin/navidrome/audiobookshelf. Because I’m excessive and like making my life harder.

        No ads, no subscriptions, just self-inflicted bullshit.
