You can also buy music on Qobuz, I use it together with Bandcamp to get more coverage.

Had the same issue, but between Bandcamp and Qobuz I find I'm not lacking much. Since I'm buying the songs anyway I don't care too much about having multiple apps for my music.
I find that it's really easy to find new artists and albums I like on Bandcamp. I just started by following a few genres and listen to a some music at random. If I like it I add it to my whislist and carry on. And I just listen to the "new and hot" section. Gives way better results and more variety than Spotify ever did for me.
From time to time I go to my whislist and listen to some of it again and usually decide to either buy the album or delete it from my whislist.
I also use Qobuz for more mainstream artists that's not on Bandcamp.
Recently started to put all my purchases into Jellyfin for easier management between the services.
I also have a few pirated playlists of my favorite songs from years ago. I go through them when I have time and money and see if I like the songs enough to buy some albums or songs from the artists.
Well no. We have around 20% increase in rain as well as higher temperatures. So unless you fancy hiking in a swamp we were better off with the snow.
I feel lucky if I get one good ski trip a season these days. It's awful.
And by 31 I had learned so many tricks to stave of the pain that I feel the best I've felt in 10 years
I watch YouTube in the background with Vivaldi and Brave on Android and never have to log in.
I hear so many people praise paying with their phones, and there I am, so happy that I can leave my phone at home when shopping. Each to their own I guess.
To build on this, in Norway so many people died that in 1450 (100 years after the black death) 60% of all farms was left abandoned and the term Ødegård (øde = desolated/abandoned, gård = farm) was popularized. Ødegård/Ødegaard is still quite a common family name to this day.
Anyone that wanted could just go and take a farm and be their own boss.
Of course, in the 1500s when the population had increased sufficiently the farms all had to be rebuilt and the rich landlords claimed the farms in their area and the King took the rest. The peasants were allowed to work the farms if they paid the lords for the privilege.
In the 1600s a new underclass of Husmenn (hus = house) was created. They owned their houses, but not the ground. When they moved they would normally take their houses with them.
The Russian Federation is de facto a Moscowite empire. And they are trying their best to annex more countries into their "Federation".
I started doing pilates a few tears ago. I hate it, but really, 15 minutes a week make a huge difference for my back. All it takes is a yoga mat and some pilates instructor lady on YouTube. Curtains is recommended since even if you get good at it you're gonna look ridiculous.
In Norway we use Facebook Messenger, which is worse. Wattsapp's at least usable as a messaging platform for more than 1-to-1 communication
I buy my music on Bandcamp and Qobuz and put it on my Jellyfin server. It's great! Also I don't need 10.000 songs at once so it's not really that expensive, I end up paying a little more a month now than for streaming, but I build up a library of music I actually like and don't have to think about losing it when yhe service get shit.
