Using Spotify More

Last updated: April 14, 2023

I’ve long-felt Spotify is the superior music listening app, but lately I find myself using it over Apple Music for a different reason.

Inexplicably, both my AirPods Pro 2 and Max cut out when I use them with my Mac Studio. Some sort of interference. So instead, I connect them to my phone to listen to music at my desk.

Thanks to Spotify being strongly cross-device, I can still control my music from my computer, sans-cut outs.

It’s dumb to need this workaround, but I’m glad it exists.

So I picked up the 2024 Motorola razr for less than $400. I haven’t used Android since switching to iPhone 10 years ago.

Instead I spent it with family and friends, traveling and enjoying the mostly beautiful weather. It was nice. I was recently asked what’s the longest I’ve ever gone without a computer. During the Summer…
