Spotify vs Tidal - worth switching?
Which one do you prefer?
I am seeing plenty of mixed opinions about both Spotify and Tidal. Some are saying Spotify is the best, others say it’s bloated, others think it’s annoying it’s also an app for podcasts. Some people really like Tidal, but I have mostly seen negative opinions about it - worse song recommendations, no difference in audio, too expensive.
As someone who doesn’t care very much for song recommendations I can’t decide which one is ideal for me personally. Tidal seems to pay artists better, but the criticism it receives makes me unsure. What do y’all think?

Tidal dropped MQA a while ago they switched to hi-res FLAC. They sold MQA off to some Canadian company
Really. The last time I checked was about a year ago
Yea it was pretty recent, 2-3 months ago. I'm not sure if they're done
migratingreplacing all of the MQA files though because even the Hi-Fi (below Master) would get a downsampled MQA instead of a FLAC. It should be HFLAC and FLAC now
