Spotify started as a place you could upload your "own" ripped music to, and then listen to it from anywhere.

Fuck them for moving away from that model, and fuck them for pulling this shit, and fuck them for giving Rogan however much they gave him to spout his bullshit

Same with Google Play Music. But they put the kibosh on that and merged it with YouTube so that today your high quality audio files show up next to poor quality slop videos uploaded by randoms.

Yea it was really annoying that you couldn't just limit it to your uploads. Any search or change of filters would just end up adding results from the rest of yt music. In then end I've moved over to jellyfin with finamp.
