Interesting, I find the UI to be better than Spotify. Not good, but better.

For Spotify, which I’ve been a paid subscriber from basically day one, the UI went downhill from incredibly great (I do have fond memories of the first client in Qt) to a total mess without any consistency.

Tidal is just a stagnant mess. Apple Music is not better.

I guess we are just suffering from the fact that UI are not made anymore to be useful but to influence customers behaviors.

Yes all these ui appear to be designed to create the appearance of usefulness but to frustrate the customer when they try to use the service in any way that does not result in the lowest fees.
