Something like a YouTube video/music link can be ripped trivially with yt-dlp. Google doesn’t force me to interact with their shitty tracker-ridden UI, spotify does.
just google it and just listen to some music instead of being an incel about it
Yeah, that’s the saner option. But DRM, online tracking, ads, and unnecessarily bloated websites are still quite concerning. Using these services more only helps them make it worse. Plus, I’m on an ancient computer; spotify runs slow as hell for me.
Sorry for being an incel again, but please try to make it more accessible. You could:
Include the song’s name, makes it easier to search
Link the song in a website that doesn’t have heavy DRM

Thing is, you don’t need an account for YouTube to work. And if you use an adblocker, it’s actually pretty hassle free too.

Take this as nicely as possible, but just google it and just listen to some music instead of being an incel about it
