How can Spotify possibly be better than Apple Music? I mean this earnestly.
TIL it's not American
With the Joe Rogan issues, I'd put it on the other side of this infographic
I agree, Spotify is predatory and has pretty bad rates for artists. It should get lumped in with Google and Apple.
+1, explain yourself op
its not apple. that alone makes it infinitely better.
Signal should have the privacy marker as well, its currently the safest way to communicate that doesn't involve one time pads or offline gpg keys
ddg makes money from ads and has in the past explicitly white listed trackers from ms. huge red flags, wouldnt trust them based on that. pick a searxng instance instead.
Spotify is a US company, no matter how they tax evade.
It's Swedish?
