Maybe later... how about never, you fucks? - Lemmy
It is endlessly frustrating that companies have universally decided that they
won’t let people say “no” to stuff, ever. There are no longer options to reject
stupid-ass new “features”, only postponement until next time you open the
app/website/program. They’ll continue pestering you for the rest of your life. I
realize that my frustration may be a little over-zealous, but we deal with these
interfaces dozens of times per day and this is user hostile behavior. There
isn’t really an option to just use another service or program, since the entire
technology landscape has been commandeered by a few major corporations, and they
all enact the same shitty things as a group.
I hear your frustration, but there are other options. The won’t necessarily be the same, or perhaps equivalent in every way, but they do exist. You don’t have to use the same corporations over and over again.
Do you know of a music streaming service that isn’t Amazon, Apple, YouTube, or Spotify? Because I’ll check it out if you do. In my car I have a thumb drive with my entire lifelong music collection on it, but at work I can’t plug anything into my work computer and need something that is accessible through the internet. I can’t imagine not having music to listen to while coding, I’d eventually lose my mind.
I use Koel. koel.dev
Install it at a host of your choice and access it in a web browser or with mobile apps.
