  • I have Spotify, Tidal and YouTube Music. In my opinion Spotify’s apps and UI are way better. Also the recommendations are much better.

    Desktop Tidal feels clunky and YT Music doesn’t have a desktop client at all.

    All three mobile apps are just fine.

    Many more people use Spotify so you’re probably more likely to find good playlist links for Spotify.

    YouTube Music is included with YouTube Premium and Tidal has higher quality audio if you need that.

    If you don’t care so much about the UI, recommendation engines etc, you can use any of them really. They have similar libraries and in the end they do the same thing - play music.






  • I thought I did and was so against manufacturers removong them. Until I got Airpods. So much better. Perfect ear fit like no other. No cable mess. Instant auto connect between devices. I can ping them. And they’ve held up longer than any cable headphones as well, whose cables always break. And they get tangled. I’ve had the Airpods for three years now and they still hold battery for a full day use for me. Charging them fully takes like 15 minutes.

    I’m sure there are similarly good headphones for other brands, this is just my own experience with Airpods.

    In case I must have a cable for some reason I can plug in a tiny 3,5mm adapter through the charging port. So that’s not a problem either.

    Also the phone has better water and dust resistance with one port less.




  • You have to find your way past the 99% commercial, screaming crap and the toxic stuff that its algorithm recommends. Adblocking or premium is a must but even then the constant in-video ads have become a cancer. It’s sometimes unbearable and makes me unsubscribe.

    YouTube is like a bowl of shit with a few gems at the bottom. You just have to dig to get there.

    There are already a bunch of good recommendations here so I won’t repeat them but:

    Recently I found HowardHandsTV, pop culture analysis, very funny and feels like an old school channel.

    Also Common Sense Skeptic ripping apart Elon Musk and Andrew Tate lately has been entertaining.

    I also fall asleep to Michael MJD and his weird and fun reviews/projects, I think it’s the voice that is soothing.
