This is great to see. I ended up moving to Tidal from Spotify, and even though there are some nice to have features missing from Tidal (an equivilant to spotify's sync between devices/speakers as well as a better Android Auto experience), it's a far superior experience.
Quobuz is also on my radar, but they've traditionally lacked in the music catalog space. I need to give them a try again now that it's been a few years.
That said, Tidal barely has Linux clients and I don't think I've seen much movement for Quobuz on Linux, unless I've just missed it.
I've moved to Deezer, love the HiFi audio! Also works well under Linux using Mellowplayer
I'm on th e verge of doing the same. Do we know how much Deezer pays artists?
Generally not a lot, less than Spotify I think. They do have a slightly different system though, I can't remember the details. I think if you listen to a specific artist more than others, they will get more money from your subscription fee or something like that
Deezer is a very ethically poor company, unfortunately, due to their owner, Access Industries.
