I’m tired of spotify giving me random issues.
What’s a good replacement for this?

Deemix - Downloads from Deezer in 320 kbps mp3 or FLAC. You need to have premium account for high quality downloads or find something called ARL cookies for login on the web. Looks like original download source is down, but there are checksums so just hunt down a mirror that matches them
Soulseek - P2P sharing specifically for music
Nice try, Sony.
For rock/metal: https://en.metal-tracker.com
May the gods bless you for sharing this link.
I have found myself using this more often than Spotify. https://github.com/yne/dzr
Its not actually pirating, but vimusic is free youtube music with no adds and it doesnt need account. Its amazing if you need it on phone only
Download mp3 or flac from artists you like. Install jellyfin or plex on an old PC, laptop, or raspberry pi and store the music there. Install finamp or plexamp on your phone. And you got your own personal spotify that you can access from anywhere
Can I manage this from android?
You have to keep on the computer that is running jellyfin/plex server. Then as long as the server is running and everything is set up, you can access all of your own songs and playlists from the android app.
There are a ton of tutorials out there for setting up jellyfin or plex.
The “best”, in my opinion, would be a private music tracker.
Spotube, Harmony, Vibe Music, all on Github, all for Android.
If you have Android, Murglar is pretty good for downloading files, playlists, albums, etc from Deezer or SoundCloud
My two main sources are Soulseek and newalbumreleases dot net
There’s so many telegram communities providing flacs from deezer, tidal and qobuz. Search for @flacrequestgroup for example.
Just here to salute the ongoing work of Shabinder od Soundbound after Spotiflyer went down.
Although sadly that’s been fluctuating at the best of times.
I just use 4K Video Downloader+ to download music from YouTube. The free version only allows you to download up to 30 videos/music tracks per day, but by buying a personal license or a pro license and activating the app with one of those licenses, then there is no download limit. Although it may not be recommended if you are an audiophile unless you don’t have any qualms with lossy audio.
you don’t need to use paid tools to download videos or audios from youtube. Try yt-dlp
