Tidal has found the right way to share music with friends.
Instead of sharing a Tidal-specific song link with friends, now you can let them choose the service they want to open it with — whether it’s Spotify, Apple Music, or Amazon Music. Tidal is rolling out universal links today, and you can see how it looks in the screenshot below.
:format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25355950/tidal_share_music_link.png)
The right way is to share a music file.
Is this a self hosted thing or what? This is how I want to share music. I am typically generating public links or dumping copies of songs in a folder that's preshared with a friend. It works, but I like what's going on in this screenshot
My music folder is like ~10GB, so I just have it being synced automatically by Syncthing on all devices.
But if you clicked share audio file, does that give you a download link to share with friends
It shares the file itself directly.
Name of the app?
Just a regular music player, Retro, from F-Droid.
No, the right way is sharing an mp3 file.
There's also song.link in case you don't use Tidal.
And Songwhip for a similar mobile friendly look.
I feel like odesli/song.link uses screen space more efficiently, but it kinda comes down to preference.
Edit: Replaced the Screenshots with light mode ones, the dark mode ones had screwed up colours.
True, I like them both. I don’t remember the mobile screen looking so clean on odesli when I was using it initially. I used to solely use it. Thanks for the heads up.
Just learned about this in a chatroom today and it’s perfect. Now I don’t have to choose between excluding people with a Spotify link or subjecting them to YouTube ads.
Nice, now I just need to find a way to get people to actually like my music recommendations 🤔
That's easy, get better taste
My taste is impeccable. Everyone else is wrong.
In people, not music

Not even joking, Death Grips was exactly who I was thinking of…
I’ve been told to stop playing it in the office at work.
I’ve been using Songwhip.com for this purpose. It’s an extra step but worth it if you want to make it easy for a group to listen.
Between this, Tidal's elimination of MQA, their recent pricing decisions, and Spotify littering their app with podcasts and now learning videos, I've never been happier with my music service. Thanks, Tidal
