        1. Grab a few moles…
        2. Axe a knife into their stones…
        3. Twist the knife to get rid of those…
        4. Remove the moleskin with a spoon…
        5. 6, 7, 8, GUAC!!!

    On mobile i use mutify, which simply mutes audio whenever an ad starts. Dead simple and works like a charm!

    Still working on my end, but don’t know for how long, if they kill it, it might be the time I pass to tidal or say fuck it and just start using again my old mp3 player app

      I think they are fine with that since you presumably don’t pay then anyways. You just cost them money.

        And I’m perfectly fine costing them money, I would pay, were they not enshittifying music streaming and paying peanuts to the artists.

        Actually, I might try and find a new patch if they block this one to keep costing them money out of spite.

          Yeah, sure free is nice. But complaining about it imo comes across as pretty selfish.

    I’m still able to use spotube without a plan, and no ads.

      Spotube shows Spotify playlists but uses YouTube music for streaming.

        Funny how that works.

        And I can download the songs, too.

        A big middle finger to both of them.

          In all fairness, I wouldn’t even pirate YouTube music. Recommendations are shit

      XManager stopped working for me a while ago. Unsure why.

    SpotEevee on iOS, can confirm that it still works.

    Edit: the article finally loaded and saw that they’re fighting APKs. Good luck to them but iirc so far no developer was able to defeat piracy on Android.
