I'm starting (a little late) to build my music library this way too. I self host jellyfin , for which there are some nice music players. But, I still have my Spotify account currently while I gradually build my personal library. I'll admit tho, I will miss the algorithm and artist suggestions

Surprising how?

At this point, just put 15k in a high interest account and only use it if you need to

True also for us ADHD folks

I've seen a few of these lately, and it's always a nice reminder that I'm doing things right!

But can we please give immich more love!?

I'm sure ente photos is great, but more love for the self hosted options like immich, nextcloud, Standard Notes, Jellyfin etc.

I'd probably recommend bitwarden over 1password. Or better yet, keepassXC

Standard notes is. It's also easily self hosted.

Another +1 for posteo!

Although, I actually use both posteo and tuta in combination with anonaddy

It's not the quantity, it's the quality. Sure I can search for similar artists with other means, but the Spotify algo is just on point. Probably so after many years of feeding it my listening habits.

I'll eventually drop it for a self hosted service with machine learning that I can train.

Spotify is the last subscription I have. I'm otherwise completely free of big tech.

The reason I can't let it go is because I actually would never find new music I like without it's algorithm. I've found such good music based off it's recommendations. I know I could still find these bands without a premium subscription. But, music is a big part of my life and I just don't want to faff around when trying to find some music I like. For the same reason I think I'd struggle to self host my music because it'd totally fail to work at the worst times no doubt

I've been a Lemmy user for a while and just created a Piefed account so I just started using Blorp. I like it.
