    I really wanted to like tidal, but honestly it’s not really good. The search sucks, no offline mode on desktop, no official Linux client, an incomplete catalog…

    It’s not worth it, even if they are the least bad for paying artists.

      You can use Plexamp as a Tidal client. I do this for offline music. Works on desktop too 🙂

      *for you it isn’t

      the search sucks

      what’s wrong with it? works fine for me

      no offline mode on desktop

      why would you need it? it’s supported on phones, just listen via phone?

      no official Linux client

      Neither does apple music. Tidal are open sourcing their SDK though

      an incomplete catalog

      *for you. for me there isn’t

      It’s not worth it, even if they are the least bad for paying artists

      Again, for you. On paper, tidal is the better option and I rather support artists than some questionable monopolistic corporation
