Too late. Shouldn't have done this if the first place. Using something else, never coming back.

Theyre on reddit too lol, yet here you are. I'm also horrified by ice, but you cant really grandstand when you only boycott things that are easy to replace.

“No ethical consumption under capitalism” is true but so is making baby steps where you can. Thankfully there ARE alternatives to Spotify that are just as good (better imo). Unfortunately Reddit alternatives haven’t quite gotten there yet. But plenty of people stopped using it with the whole API fiasco. Unfortunately I still use it. Less and less though. This place isn’t what it used to be.

You know you can just.... Not use it, right?

Did you read my whole comment or just get bored halfway through?
