Every single time I use Spotify, after the first advert it says to enjoy the next 30 minutes ad free. Then after a 2 minute long song, I get 5 minutes of adverts 😑. Every single time
Edit: using mutify now, thank you everyone!
This is one service I pay for and never had had to worry about ads. I can skip around, download and work it just like my offline music with no differences
Yeah, the complaining about spotify’s free tier is something I just don’t get. I grew up listening to the goddamn radio. No choice in what to listen to and ads all the time. But when your jam came on, it felt great every time.
I’m on a family plan with some friends. I’ve discovered a ton of new music because of Spotify. I’ve gone to many shows, bought merch, vinyls, for bands I never would’ve known had it not been for Spotify.
I’m just not sure what people want, but it reeks of entitlement. If you’re gonna pirate music, by all means, go to town. Nobody cares.
How many AI songs you have tho? Spotify has other ways to make money for itself and its cronies, namely by shoving fake generated music that big lables own down your playlist so the big label cartel gets more profit.
Probably not that many since I carefully curate my list and generally only listen to local artists or international that I’m familiar with.
- IOS; Sideloading EeveeSpotify.
- Windows; Specitify.
- Android; ReVanced.
There’s no reason to waste your time on ads.
Last time I checked, uBlock blocked ads on Spotify.
Last time I checked, uBlock blocked ads on Spotify.
Yeah, your right. uBlock Origin block advertisement on the browser. However, Spicetify blocks advertisement within the desktop app and allows for multiple add-ons/ extension plus customizing your entire app.
I quit using Spotify entirely after https://swedenherald.com/article/this-is-how-much-spotify-donated-to-trumps-inauguration
They alao have done very little about the misinformation Joe Rogan continues to spout.
So stop ducking using the service. How else is it ever going to change?
Also, stop fucking using it
Stop using services that don’t care about their users for
fuck
's sake
I used to get so annoyed at the auto correct to ducking but after a niece and nephew were introduced as variables I’ve found ducking the most effective sentence enhancer that doesn’t provoke a parent teacher conference for my brother lol
spicetify
I will say nothing else
Ohh, also revanced spotify
Or SpotX for Windows, you just paste and run a powershell command line.
Adverts are poison for the mind.
Am I the only one who download music now?(11.3 GB - 320K - Around 1600 Songs)
Amateur. 120 gb myself.
(Seriously though, that’s awesome 👍 )
10,000 songs on a SDcard in my car.
This is one service where the free version really isn’t worth it.
why don’t you have an adblocker? I haven’t seen / heard an ad on one of my devices in 15 years.
Wait that’s a thing in Mobile devices?
If you’re on iPhone, SOL or use Spotify web with brave browser (in-built ad blocker).
If you’re on Android plenty of APKs that’ll disable ads and make you ‘premium’
I second the other user recommending revanced and also would like to throw in spotx-bash fix for the desktop spotify app ad removal.

Windows version
Firefox + ublock origin + sponsor block (for youtube).
i don’t use apple products but it works on everything else
Look into NextDNS. It can block ads systemwide on your device.
Just wait until you hear about piracy!
The only reason I would listen to 5 minutes of adverts is if I had no way of stopping them.
Use spot tube
It’s a trap. Its been that way as long as I can remember. If any music service offers a longer ad for uninterrupted music, don’t do it.
Idk how it can even be considered a trap or legal its straight up false advertising, textbook definition
Laughs in Navidrome
Use spotube or simpmusic. Its not like spotify actually pays their artists jackshit. Just make sure to send small artists a few bucks if you really like their stuff
