I hate the company but I haven't found another streaming service with a similar amount of music, sound quality and algorithm. I have a jellyfin instance, but it lacks the choice and algorithm.
Edit: I am currently in the process of switching to Tidal. It has pretty much all the niche artists that I usually listen to, the algo is pretty good (at least thats what other ppl say), the audio quality is very good and it has a really nice UI. Also, it pays Artists twice as much as Spotify.
It doesn't have a native App for Linux, but there is https://github.com/Mastermindzh/tidal-hifi, which is an electron wrapper for the web-ui that is also available via Flatpak and works well so far.
Tried tidal and didn't work well for me with Android auto. You can actually use something like tune my music to copy your playlists to every main service for testing.
I used apple music. I don't like Apple in particular, but they pay artists, and don't pay Joe rogan
I actually found the music suggestions were way better than Spotify which mostly just repeated stuff I heard
