Why isn’t SoundCloud included in Spotify alternatives?

[–] tfm 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Good question. Probably because it isn't a conventional music streaming service?

[–] piyuv@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thank you for the answer! I’m curious, how do you define “conventional”?

Isn't SoundCloud more like a social network for music?

[–] piyuv@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Yes it has social features like DMs and comments, but its music catalogue is bigger than others, since it allows everyone to upload

Have to check it out again. I wonder if there is a federated alternative out there.
