  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • BlockTheSpot

    Discontinued Video, audio & banner adblock/skip for Spotify

  • There's 2 methods to pick from. One is BlocktheSpot and there is the DLL injection method. Supposedly the DLL Injection method is better as it's supposed to be more resistant against auto updates and supposedly more stable. But I've only had experience with BlockTheSpot and I've been using it for a while with auto update disabled and I've been pleased with it. You can also use SpotX which is supposed to be based off of BlockTheSpot but has additional features such as update disabling. You can't go wrong with either just use whichever you prefer. Just follow the instructions linked below and you should be good to go.

  • SpotX

  • spotify-adblock

    Adblocker for Spotify

  • Honestly you guys are probably smart enough to figure this one out so I’ll just link the GitHub link here. It’s also because I don’t have any Linux machines so I have no experience with this but many on here have said good things about it. Just follow the instructions on the GitHub and you should be fine.

  • SpotX-Bash

    SpotX Mac and Linux adblocker for the Spotify desktop client, in Bash

  • AltStore

    AltStore is an alternative app store for non-jailbroken iOS devices.

  • https://altstore.io

  • SpotX-Linux

    Spotify Ad blocker based on SpotX for Linux

  • SpotX: https://github.com/SpotX-CLI/SpotX-Linux

  • xManager-Spotify

    Discontinued Ad-Free, New Features & Freedom [Moved to: https://github.com/xManager-App/xManager]

  • You guys have it easy you can just use XManager and be set. Or at least when I used android that’s what I used. You just download the APK then install it and pick the latest app version and you are set. Try installing ARMV8 first and if it fails then do ARMV7 assuming it still asks for that in the app.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • TrollStore

    Jailed iOS app that can install IPAs permanently with arbitary entitlements and root helpers because it trolls Apple

  • TrollStore-IPAs

    A collection of IPA files from many different sources, for TrollStore!

  • https://github.com/swaggyP36000/TrollStore-IPAs this github has spotilife on 8.8.48 for iOS that works great for trollstore without jailbreaking, it might even work sideloaded.

  • YTLitePlus

    A modified version of Youtube for iOS supercharged with YTLite (by @dayanch96) and +20 tweaks

  • YTLitePlus for iOS
