Hello all,

I have recently moved to pixel/graphene, and am looking to dump spotify.

On desktop I use Freetube and Nuclear which I really like, but I haven’t found a good way to sync with mobile.

On the android side I have newpipe, pipepipe, libretube, RiMusic, SpMp, SimpmMusic, InnertTune, ViMusic…

I’m a bit overwhelmed with options.

I’ve heard of cracked spotify apks but I’m not sure what the deal is with those

With that in mind please give recommendations or explain your solution. KDE connect integration is a nice plus some of these apps have but I’d be ok with using a standalone application as long as I can somehow control the music on either device.

I plan to start maintaining my library locally but I still need some kind of streaming solution.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts

    I use xManager.

    Before you had to patch the app yourself. Now you can download it directly from the app.

    The only I am missing is a download feature but I have some of my favorite music on my phone already and I just Spotify to stream new music or to support artist.

      Thanks, interesting

      Do you create a real spotify account for it or use it logged out?

      How trustworthy is this considered? I have it sandboxed but I laughed when the app sent me to a mediafire link

        The group uses the cheapest available storage they can find. They used Google Drive before but their accounts kept on getting banned.

        My trust of them is only due to their popularity and had minimal complaints.
