Goodbye, Slopify

My Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify is finally poisoned by AI slop.

There’s no way I’m going to continue a subscription to a streaming service that suggests AI-generated music with AI-generated album covers. A bloated, Electron-based desktop application with a terrible UI is only going to add up.

So goodbye, Slopify. Thank you for pushing me towards supporting more real artists and buying music that I can actually own.
