I have ~100 users downloaded ~1000 of my files in the last week alone. Music piracy is still alive and kicking. I encourage everyone to download and install SoulseekQT/Nicotine+/Seeker-Android and share whatever kind of music you have for everybody to download. Let's bring back music piracy!

Spotify is literally the only subscription service that I haven't cut ties with, because as much as I hate its horrific data harvesting, I'm running it on GrapheneOS with legitimately next to zero privileges in a sandbox, and for what I'm paying, I truly do feel I'm getting my money's worth. I use it every single day, and while I have all my music stored locally (as in legitimately scraped and downloaded, not 'downloaded'), I only did so as a precaution just in case Spotify decides to fuck things up and I also choose to cancel it as well.

Try vimusic, from what i've seen its just spotify without the data harvesting (and the api's taken from youtube music, shouldn't change much though)

That actually sounds fantastic, cheers for the recommendation!

I wouldnt count on it working for long. vfsfitvnm hasn't touched the repo since december with several PRs left untouched.

Seems abandoned to me. https://github.com/vfsfitvnm/ViMusic
