their algorithm is garbage
Can confirm. It’s engagement bait at its worst

ActivityPub is a W3C standard, though.

What has been debunked was the whole story regarding MQA audio, which now they have abandoned. Now it is truly lossless
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Yeah, on my good headphones the difference is quite noticeable

Re: tidal on Linux, if you use Arch there are a couple of options in the AUR. I don’t know about other distros.
linux as a non supported web browser
I’m confused about this one, lol. I did not know that Linux is a browser

I’ll bash them if and when they’ll start to do shitty stuff. Until then they are great
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Nope. They have changed that. Lossless is now part of the basic plan
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Friendly reminder that Tidal costs the same, has a bigger catalog, does not pester you with podcasts, has lossless quality audio and it includes lyrics
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Tidal has recently eliminated its most expensive plan and bundled everything it offered into the cheaper tier. So it’s actually the opposite of enshittification. I love it

Copilot lists its sources. The problem is half of them are completely made up and if you click on the links they take you to the wrong pages

- Comment on Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right 8 months ago:
My guess is that they’ve realized that nobody subscribed to the highest tier, so they’ve incorporated its features into the normal tier, hoping to make it up in volume (I.e. new people subscribing because it’s cheap and it offers more than Spotify). So perhaps they are going to be able to pay artists the same rates
- Comment on Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right 8 months ago:
No, there is also what Tidal calls “HiRes FLAC”, which is 24-bit, 192 kHz. Their website does not even mention MQA anymore. They’ve moved away from MQA since early 2023, when the MQA company went bankrupt

I guess people who also like YT premium

It does sound clickbait-y and I guess that’s why there are butthurt people in the comments. I guess its meaning is “literally everyone is raising prices, while Tidal is lowering them”. TBF I also had to read the title again because it’s pretty strange to see prices decrease

Hey, at least we agree on something lol

So you’re talking out of your ass. Got it
- Comment on Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right 8 months ago:
Ok. So journalistically, the key points to get across here are:
- Tidal is changing its subscriptions plans
- They are now cheaper
- That’s pretty unique since literally everyone else on the planet is increasing prices, not lowering them
How would you have reported the news? Would you have done something differently?

Qobuz has the most beautiful and serious-looking UI I’ve tried, I really love it. But I had to stop using it because there is no lyrics integration and some of my favorite (admittedly obscure) music was not there. But the UI is spectacular, especially on desktop
- Comment on Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right 8 months ago:
If you care about sound quality, Tidal and Qobuz are the best. The rest comes down to preference, IMHO. I like Tidal’s recommendations, but I’ve also heard good things about Spotify’s and Apple’s

You don’t know the Verge, perhaps
This is just a good news and they are reporting it as such

They don’t want a bad experience so they use shady websites to download music in the shittiest possibile quality? I don’t buy it.
