I'm doing great with xManager so I don't give a flying fuck about this haha

I wondered this myself, so Googled it, and found https://www.xmanagerapp.com/

... And I'm still none the wiser. All I learned that it's for Android and does... something.

Pirated Spotify premium for Android.

I've used it for a few months, and every time after 60 days exactly spotify killed my account.

It's nice if you just want to listen to adfree music, but not to actually build a library you can rely on.

There are risks you have to deal with when you pirate stuff, not everything are beautiful sunsets yo know ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‰.

Right now I'm using NewPipe x SponsorBlock and ViMusic and everything it's going apparently fine, let's see how the things evolve but right now are running smooth.

[-] viking@infosec.pub 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah I've been using NewPipe x Sponsorblock for about 5 years, the main benefit with Spotify was that frequently accessed songs are stored locally, while newpipe streams them all over again, unless you explicitly download them. And the spotify algorithm was much better at suggesting related artists, my youtube algo is overwhelmed from all the non-music stuff I watch.

Yeah NewPipe definitely need a better cache system, and about the algorithm I truly don't know, I have years WO using Spotify since I moved to YouTube Music Premium and then to ViMusic.
