If you do it, you get banned though.

@nf3xn @knigge @fribbledom streaming music is a very popular way of consumption these days. i'm glad you're making your own informed decisions about this but please don't belittle others for their choices.

Shame happens to be a very effective tool to modify corrupt social behaviour. Spotify has demonstrated time and again that it is a bad-actor. If people are still choosing such platforms, the least we must do is shame them (just like we must shame the artists who choose to play within the discriminatory boundaries set by these platforms).

Having your music on spotify is fine, using it hurts artists as well as spreds and funds medical misinformation and fasvism (their pivot to podcasts)
