I'm cleaning out my gmail folders this weekend, and went deep into the archive to 2011, when I got my invite to Google Music.

It's funny, because I just (November) moved all of my music out of cloud and back to local-only. Amazon was the last straw, when I tried to play purchased music, and was forced to listen to it on shuffle with other songs not of my choosing.

Anyway... there was a time when Google (ahem, Youtube) Music was set to be a game-changer. Imagine if enshittification wasn't a thing.

Let's all of us stop making the mistake of trusting big tech. They always make a good product you actually want then rugpull once you're settled. YouTube music is passably okay but there's a dozen bugs and issues that I'm still struggling with that didn't exist in Google music

The UI/UX is absolute trash for uploaded music compared to play music.
