A lot of people are unhappy with Spotify’s user interface right now.

Some people are giving up on Spotify entirely in response to this, trying outalternative streaming servicesinstead.

Here are a few I’ve found.

Spotify customized to look cooler. The theme uses colors from the currently playing album and generally looks a lot easier on the eyes.

A free tool calledSpicetifylet’s you do just that.

I’ve talked about the best Raycast extensions in the past, including the excellentSpotify integration.

This app is going througha bit of an authentication problemat the moment because of changes made by Spotify.

A fix is reportedly on the way.

Am I going to remove them?

This is a meticulous recreation of the classic iPod experience, complete with an on-screen scroll wheel.

Pretend that Spotify is Winamp

Here’s another silly one, this time from from developerRemi Gallego.

I wish someone would release this as a desktop app.

Apple Music has a great mini player for this.

Spotify recently launched aWinamp-style mini player, though I find it annoying.

It always floats on top of other windows, for one thing, and it’s a bit ugly.

It even supports some basic visualizations (but sadly not on Mac).
