Yeah, the one playlist I missed I had shared with friends. Just haven’t bothered them about it yet :)

I generally listen more to albums than playlists though, so playlists don’t make all that much of a difference.

Yeah, except that I deleted my Spotify account before making the switch and lost all my playlists. :(

Truly decentralized music streaming? 🏴‍☠️

And curated playlists rather than AI slop.

I switched to Qobuz and I like it much more than I liked Spotify. Only real complaint is having to use their web client in Linux.

I don’t stream, but I’m thinking of learning how to use torrents. More ethical than Apple or Amazon.

I had to fix some iCloud stuff for an ex, it was an absolute nightmare to deal with. I guess mileage varies. I couldn’t be happier with Nextcloud.

That said, I’m happy there are people who don’t want to sacrifice comfort on here. That’s a really good sign.

I switched from Dropbox to Nextcloud, saved a bunch of money and couldn’t be happier. It’s fantastic open source software. I don’t understand why it’s rarely listed in these guides.

Under my Nextcloud provider (Murena - not the cheapest, but they develop my phone OS so I figured I can support them) I also have OnlyOffice running on the cloud, which is great for co-authoring. And I also get e-mail there of course, though I mostly use e-mail from my web-hosting provider. I think Nextcloud also has video conferencing.

For search I use Qwant for now. I like that they’re slowly developing their own index, yet they are less puritan than Mojeek so the results are a bit more reliable. Haven’t heard of Karma before.
