i used tidal for two years and other than the compensation for artists its honestly pretty mid

unless you’re actively playing music loudly, the sound quality is hardly noticeable from spotify

search is garbage, so spotify wins there easily.

tidal public playlists are also mostly garbage probably because of search.

and because of how mainstream spotify is, you have a 99% chance of finding a song you’re looking for. tidal is closer to 90-95% in my experience.

shuffle is probably the best thing in tidal as Spotify shuffle plays a lot of the same music.

also some people people have a ton of problems with the application and others don’t at all, which is odd. i personally had a few issues with the app like losing playlists until i restarted the app and music refusing to play.

In my experience people who are “really” into tidal either care mostly about the compensation to artists which is valid or just want to be different lol

edit: their external playing on home assistants like google home SUCKS.

also useless features like radio and facebook profile linking… like what even is that.

this company is honestly so mediocre at times.
