Despite having a multi-billion-dollar net worth, you decided to stop paying artists for songs with less than 1,000 streams (months before giving Joe Rogan $250,000,000). So I made a playlist of 300+ great songs with less than 1,000 streams to give them more visibility and plays.
I love seeing the creative ways people use Spotify. Does anyone have an unusual use case you think others should try?

back in Old Times, you could browse cool websites for hours. These were websites not built around monetization. They were built to be explored and rewarded curiosity. So few of them exist today but if you have any you love, please drop them in the replies!
@north0fnorth i’ve found https://t.co/JSUQ5Cxmju to be a pretty reliable source when i want to look at some period-specific design! you can click on the year & also their tag system is pretty good

in my head the best way to collect rap albums is to do so via cassette it just feels like the most natural medium for the genre i have a few currently but i think i wanna start to build a proper collection of all the best and most iconic albums which ones are the MUST HAVEs?

Remembering investigative journalist and author Gary Webb on the anniversary of his 2004 death. Rather than focusing on the circumstances of his death, familiarize yourself with his work— the original articles that appeared in the San Jose Mercury-News, or the book that followed—
