    I went back to good ol MP3 files about a year ago in an effort to lower montly subscriptions and the tiktokification of spotify was a big reason why.

        Not only the rotation, we need more presenters (every single one, including myself has been busy) to air on the station too, because honestly those sessions are peak Radio Lemmy. (please come back psythik we can’t let radio lemmy die)

      I always have (stayed woth MP3s) but its harder and harder to even listen to them away from a phone. Major issue I have now is it’s a PITA to play a local library on networked speakers (Echo, specifically) w/out voice interaction being the sole means of use. I just want a tablet with a nice interface to allow me to play music on various Echo’s and speaker sets.

      Bluetooth is an option, but it’s not really “home automation” setup friendly.

        Jellyfin/plex/Navidone as a backend, synfonium as the app.

        I dont use echo, but it has casting and upnp support so it should work with echo.

      What do you mean with ‘tiktokification of Spotify’?

      I stopped using Spotify at least a few years ago because they started serving adverts to paying customers - so I’m out of the loop.
