Looking to migrate off of spotify. I will miss it for suggesting new songs and keeping up with new releases. What do you use to stay up to date, but off of paid services?

Bonus points for: a way to get my playlists/liked songs off of spotify :)
Jellyfin server that streams to my iOS Finamp app.
Music collected using Lidarr from the Servarr automation suite. https://github.com/Servarr/Wiki
Only service I’m comfortable paying for is my VPN, provided by Proton VPN.
Personally, I’d use Bandcamp. It’s mostly indie artists, but there’s a lot of good stuff on there. However, you can only play a song so many times per month before you need to buy it, but once you do that you own that song and can download it as an MP3 or FLAC. I also still use CDs.
Then there are the streaming options:
- MusicPiped is an alternative frontend to YouTube Music.
- Nuclear is a desktop app which pulls music from YouTube, Bandcamp, Apple Music and others.
- Olivia is a better desktop app, which does sort of the same thing
- SpoTube is another option, but I haven’t tested it. However, it can access your Spotify playlists.
I too would like to know.
Lidarr to manage. This is where you’ll visit for new release info. Use its integration with usenet/torrents if you’re okay with piracy.
For listening (applicable whether you pirate or not) I use airsonic. Much more complex/nerdy than spotify though.
Well, ViMusic uses YouTube Music except that it’s free. Available on fdroid.
