A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

any good alternatives out there? or better to start hosting music on my media server?
Another for Deezer. In the last couple months, I've tried Tidal, Qobuz and Deezer. Qobuz seems the best if you're into music and building your own playlists. They pay the best royalties and do a bunch of human curating, including a weekly zine for current releases. They don't have an automatic playlist that I could find. Deezer has the best recommendation engine of the three, at least for the genres I listen to.
Are these things free and privacy friendly? Never heard of any of them
None of them are free, but they all have a month free trial. After that they're all $10-15 a month. Not sure about privacy, it wasn't a priority when I went looking. I hadn't heard of any of them before I went looking for alternative music services.
