People won't sacrifice anything for their principles anymore... "It's too inconvenient!"
Was so easy to swap over to tidal. (not perfect, I know).
I've even gotten a family plan and offered family what amounts to free service.
I've sent tutorials on converting their libraries using a super easy service that's still less $ than just continuing to pay for spotify.
They are still on spotify because it's easier than giving a shit.
I made that mistake with Spotify, got a family plan years ago and hooked my sister + nephew + niece up. Now if I want to cancel it and they lose their playlists, they'll be all pissy.

I did a quick search with duckduckgo and found this: https://exportify.net/
Yeah the upside to my kid being able to explore music and have that whole world opened for him outweighs moving to a different, but still shitty in various ways, music streaming service.
The problem is that it's really hard to leave.
Building your own library from scratch is a lot of work after getting used to streaming.
And Spotify alternatives are either worse or unavailable in my region.
You could use Revanced. There's a version for Spotify or YouTube music.
If you care about music/musicians you wouldn’t supportt a platform that’s constantly scamming musicians.
Just search “artists suing Spotify”
