A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

I am the weird one here but I am the only one of everyone I know who doesn't use Spotify or any music service. I got a 6 month free trial years ago and I guess I was just so set on how I look up music and discover it that Spotify was getting in the way of that and so I barely used it.
I just looked and currently have 156k songs, 13k albums, and 3.2k artists to choose from so I got some choices! Been doing this since early to mid 2000's. If I had to pick right now probably Blur since I've been on a Blur kick recently with the new album released.
Ye. But after 6 months trial, did you have to like cancel it or do You owe* 100s of dollars to Spotify now?
We're all dieing to know...
Thx
No I just canceled it the month before it expired and it was completely free. I think the standard is 3 months but I believe I got this for a bigger than normal purchase like a new phone maybe? Figured it was worth trying out. I think the only requirement was the account used couldn't have used or been signed up for pro prior.
Nice 👍🙂
