I much prefer the UI and it (used to?) allow uploading my own music where the offering was lacking. Notably, Spotify also didn't have these songs, so having them in one library is great. The recommendations are also spot on for me, but like you said that could be attributed to having used it for a long while (used Play Music pretty much from its inception).

Considering I'd want to pay to get rid of ads on YouTube too having the music service bundled is a bonus. I used to pay for the music service standalone before that.

I bet that Spotify will do just fine now, although last time I tried (some time last year) I didn't immediately like the UI, and the shuffle seemed to work oddly in large playlists. What it does have over YT Music for sure is integrations with other parties, I wish YT was better in that regard.

"You people", very kind. As if people doing things on autopilot isn't universal and implementations like these aren't meant to trigger that exact thing. Read up on UX, and implementations of dark patterns. Perhaps have an attempt at empathy too.

"People like you" make the internet such a bad place sometimes. Generalizing, exaggerating, calling names...

I'm personally a fan of YT Music, glad we've got some options though!

I've clicked the "install" button on the ad by accident, more than once. The ad precedes an exact match, super dark pattern.

Oddly enough, the "lite" subscription was introduced in some other countries during the time they shut it off in the launch countries.

I wonder if they're testing willingness to spend using the cheaper sub, then pulling it if it turns out people are likely to buy the pricier plan once the lower tier isn't available anymore?

The author proceeds to style the overlay like a toast, making it much less obvious than the ever-present white square. I wouldn't dismiss it so easily.

Blame the victim? Seems like they blame LTT for not being clear enough about what is going on.

If you're on the techy side and want an all-in-one solution? Sure, if you plan on expanding within their ecosystem later. Unifi's biggest benefit is the ecosystem, being able to manage everything from one place is nice.

ESLint won't prevent you from running your code, which is what the OP is on about. Hence the confusion in this thread.
