I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a “sponsored recommendation”.

Why am I seeing ads if I’m already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

    I recently found Spotube. It uses the Spotify search API then plays the audio from youtube. Basically spotify premium for free.

    Haven’t actually used it yet though.

      Spotube looks really interesting. It says that you can use it as anonymous/guest, but it looks like it still requires a Spotify account. I don’t have an account, but I might have to make one just to test it out lol

        Yeah, reading through the github issues it seems the developer meant you can play stuff logged out but you can’t use spotify search without an account so the search doesn’t work unless you log in.
