Usually I try to just ignore this type of stuff and get on with my day, but I recently switched from spotify to apple music for reasons™, and the desktop user interface is so comically poor that I have to make a thread highlighting what I came across in one session, strap in:

@pelvis_man It also handled DRM to win the music industry over, who were still obsessed with trying to hock CDs in Our Price whilst kids were downloading the stuff for free off Napster anyway ... ofc know kids were now building massive iTunes libraries by ripping all their mates CDs 😂

@pelvis_man 2001 iTunes did two things well (for the time): Support iPod & rip CDs direct to library with one button - without pages of cryptic settings and ways to break it.

@pelvis_man @nicbarkeragain Even older heads remember the initial version of iTunes, primarily a companion app to the iPod (I’m that old 👴),it was elegant and simple, miles better than anything else. Unfortunately it rapidly turned to bloat once more devices and commercial opportunities came along. And U2.

@nicbarkeragain Oldheads remember when it was called iTunes, and it was the worst music app around with several contemporary competitors. They don't appear to have changed a single thing.

@AndrewHart TBF if i was MacOS I wouldn't want to write a PDF either, they are strange and mysterious. It's no coincidence that the guy who cracked it went on to become the Smartest Guy on the Internet.

🎙️| Ange Postecoglou when asked how he feels about #Tottenham’s ongoing struggles: “Not great, I still have a really strong attachment to the club. ‌ “It was two years and they were by no means easy years, but we invested a lot into them. Second last game we won a European trophy which was an incredible high. “The connection there will be there forever. To watch them struggle has not been easy and it’s not the way I thought it would go. They’re in a hell of a fight, relegation is massive for any club but for Tottenham, it’s a pretty big deal. ‌ “They have some fighting to do and they have the quality to get out. They need a circuit-breaker for sure.” @RyanTaylorSport

I'm convinced Frank is actually broke and has been bluffing about his money since Season 2. He lives with Charlie, eats cat food, and sleeps in a pull-out bed. No millionaire lives like that unless the money's been gone for years.

@MDT_90 @thespursweb Sadly yes. We’ve been in freefall for two years at least, there’s been plenty of opportunities and the funds to improve the players and we’ve not bothered. Can’t blame the players if they keep on getting picked. Tudor isn’t doing anything Frank couldn’t, what’s the point.

@Lofionic @thespursweb Have you watched us? Manager doesn't matter, players couldn't give a shit. As I initially said a new manager doesn't make a difference

@TheSpursWatch This is why, never believe clubs when they talk about ‘give it time’, ‘five year projects’ — it means they’re simply flailing whilst milking as much money out of it when they can.

Fuck these players. Worst group of footballers I’ve ever seen. They don’t deserve this fanbase.

@FabrizioRomano More trouble than he’s worth. Next time spend the extra few mil on a proper professional. Remember Vertonghen? 🥰
