A group of YouTube Music staff found out that they had been made redundant while speaking at a council meeting in Texas, urging councillors to support them in their efforts to get the Google-owned company to negotiate with their union. Google says they were contractors whose agreements have expired
I’m sure this was labor retaliation or something but watching YouTube music eat google music and then steadily get worse. I don’t know. Fuck google and their lack of support. I don’t like Spotify particularly but now I use it because i really hated youtube music’s suggestion algorithm.
Youtube Music’s interface is a cluttered mess and I much preferred the spartan UI of Google Play Music. It took much time for the former to reach feature parity as well. Oh, and now they shutdown their dedicated Podcasts app in favor of merging It into YT Music. It is a disappointment, to say the least.
I don’t think it’s even reached feature parity. I think YouTube Music still doesn’t let you upload your own music to your account?
One can upload their own music to Youtube/Music’s servers via their web client.
