Is there a Spotify alternative that has no ads?

I pay for Spotify for 7 years or so now and i'm so sick of all the ads. After every update there seems to be an: oops, sorry, you have ads now. Podcasts are filled with ads. I was just listening to a podcast where they shoved in 3 ads mid-sentence. How long until musicians put ads in their songs. I'm just so sick of it.

But it’s literally the podcast hosts choosing to insert ads. Not Spotify. It would be like blaming Netflix because you didn’t like what the characters are wearing on one of the movies.

Podcasts will have ads no matter where you listen to them. That’s not Spotify inserting them, it’s the podcasts. I pay for a family subscription to Spotify, and I never get ads in between songs, not after updates or anything.

There is such a thing as abuse. Not everyone’s parents suck. Some beat their children, some love them. Sure, everyone hates their parents at some point, and it’s all relative. You’re making it sound like abusive parents don’t exist.

You’re welcome, I hope you both enjoy!

That’s too funny! I think I have an image that will help you to never forget:

Hey, I found this documentary on beavers that won several awards, so I figured I’d share in case you want to watch it with your daughter.

That’s really cool, did you see the birds?

Sounds like a fun vacation! One of these days I’ll get to see a puffin.

In general, it’s quite derpy-looking. But I am glad it was born 🥰

I love that most comments are about how special this child is.

I’ve done it. You’re not supposed to come up with a finished product in 30 days (although some people do). Mine was a first draft of roughly 55k words.

At the same time‽

I also had totally dry eyes when I read it, so you’re not alone.
