    Fun update: I made an app over the holiday break!

    It’s called Unstream: Find your favorite music on alternative platforms, directly support the artists you love, and move off streaming.

    It was directly borne out of my desire to get off Apple Music myself, and instead build a library of music I own through directly supporting artists by buying their music.

    You can check it out here, at a URL I still find amusing: https://unstream.stream

      @hannsr thanks! I’m investigating other music players to support soon, but in the meantime I’m about to announce a chrome extension (& soon after a Firefox extension), if either of those would work in the meantime!

        This is absolutely brilliant!

        Are you planning on maintaining this app and URL?

          @kidlightbulbs thanks 🙂 Yeah I saw the hint about an extension. I'm personally on 99% Bandcamp already, but a colleague asked about youtube after I shared it at work.

            @hannsr oh amazing! I appreciate the word of mouth promotion 😉 Chrome extension is technically live if they would like to try it, I’m just making some tweaks. I’ll also look into supporting browser-based players like YT Music in the Mac app.

                Cool — I had no idea Frost* was on Bandcamp!

                One suggestion, if I may: for names longer than a few characters on mobile, could you make more space for names in search results, rather than shortening them quite so much? That would make the list easier to navigate.

                Thanks again for setting this up.

                      @root for now, yes, but I’m thinking about open sourcing it!
