No algorithmic suggestions and therefore, no curated daily taste playlists, no sorting your library by genre (at least not as granular and specific as Spotify unless you put in as much work as they do at tagging your music), finding new music manually takes at least 10x more effort and you're limited to the taste you already know you have. If you switch phones you're SOL unless you want to deal with the insanely slow transfer speeds of androids MTP or whatever apples slow ass transfer protocol is. Not to mention your library is limited by how much space you have. My 10,000+ song playlists on Spotify aren't gonna easily fit on anyone's device, and definitely not at the highest quality that Spotify can stream at. Your only hope of getting even a comparable experience is to be tech savvy and patient enough to set up a home streaming server, manually tag all your music, and find an audio app with an interface/features that you like that also supports streaming. Oh and then your home computer needs to be on all the time, and your Internet has to be great, and you must not care about your energy bill that much, and ... I'm just gonna stop. Locally stored music is just not anywhere near as good. It's lame and tedious and nearly pointless. At most, I'd say keep a couple albums you like with high quality FLACs but that's it. You're waisting your time not getting Spotify premium or Apple Plus or whatever the heck

Oh and this is coming from 20+ years of pirating media. Limewire used to be the best, but now it's firmly Spotify etc.

If you're doing it for a friend make sure you ASK if they want Linux, don't force it on them man that's not cool. Most normies just want to use Windows for the compatibility and ease of use (call it handholding and restrictive all you want).

I quit Reddit 2 years ago due to the content becoming more and more toxic (maybe it was always toxic) and I'm just so dang happy that my favorite 3rd party Reddit apps have a Lemmy client. I'm using Sync and it's like coming home. Functionally identical experience but with a cooler community.

Apply your thumbs in an upward motion to the corners of their mouth. Use force if necessary

Samsung phones have an option in the battery settings called "charge protection" and it makes your phone stop charging at 85%. Look through your battery settings to see if you have a similar option.
