I just don't understand how people continue to do this. Are we really going to try and sell thoughtless articles as our own? With the same 4 fill-in-the-blank sentence structures?

Re:FreeYourMusic lets users migrate their playlists off Spotify on Wednesday October 14, 2020 @09:29AM (#24776276)
If you just want a csv of all your playlists right now, instead of potentially "30 days". This repo works well.

I'd bet that more than 95% of the US population would equate those two terms.
