Spotify HiFi is still MIA after three years, and now so is my subscription
I looked into swapping to Apple Music before but couldn't find a way to play lossless music on Linux making swapping pointless. Apparently[0] decryption for lossless isn't supported for 3rd party clients.
Anyone know of a way around this?

It's basically a open source frontend for Apple Music that works on Linux and Windows. It's what I use to listen to my Apple Music songs on Linux, and it's amazing.

Apple needs to redesign the desktop app
If you’re on windows. check this out. It’s a beautiful design and works just as good as you’d expect it to

The same could be said about video game launchers
apple music will do up to 192khz 24bit on iPhone and the interface is pretty nice, you can listen at spotify quality (320kbps?) on pc with Cinder which also has a pretty good interface
