I mean fair enough, i use this version of Spotify and don’t pay them a single cent: https://bestforandroid.com/apk/spotify-premium-mod-apk/

But if I was a paying customer i would be pretty pissed opening Spotify the first time on my 3 week travels and seeing this crap :⁠-⁠O Funnily there isn’t even an option to change the location as suggested. Neither in the modded app nor on spotify.com on FF mobile.

    I love all the people here on the piracy community who are paying users of spotify. Almost like piracy isnt an issue if the alternative is more convenient. Funny that huh.

        If the services are fulfilling the needs that the customers have, no piracy is needed. There are some issues, like this, but for the most part, Spotify is quite good currently.

    Use a different client, or the web player then. This is a settings issue and attempt of them to combat IP switches and account sharing. You’re not a paying customer, and I’ve not had this issue on a paid account before.

    Honestly, Spotify kinda sucks anyway. Use something else.

      Spotify sucks? What are some good alternatives that have a similar amount of content and suggestions?

          There is no way you can use Spotify and think it has a low amount of music. There are precious few things I’ve looked for it doesn’t have.

          Navidrome server streaming to Symfonium through Wireguard using music downloaded with Soulseek and suggestions generated by Listenbrainz. No, it’s not as convenient for the average user.

          Understanment of the century. If you end up listing 5 different pieces of software to replace 1, then it’s going to be something for enthusiasts only.
