The whole situation is messed up. Spotify has some responsibility as the platform. But the base problem is that Joe Rogan has gone from being entertainment to being misinformation, and he has no qualifications to be the second (and he's demonstrably bad at it). Neil Young et all were trying to call attention to this, but their method didn't leave much room for Spotify to do anything to help. If this trend continues, will we just have left/right companies in addition to left/right information sources? Does this serve our already damaged society well?

That'll get you 9% of the way to Rogan's 11 Million listeners. If you can get some combination of The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa and Olivia Rodrigo...maybe something will happen.

A friend mentions that Tidal has much better sound quality (FLAC). I've been in the AppleMusic world only, and have a pair of stereo HomePods that I love.

Anyone with a good history with Tidal that wants to convert me, hopefully with HomePod experience?

I had a 30 day free trial and I really enjoyed it. But not like $19.99 / month enjoyed.

I don't know about Bill, but I wouldn't put in the time and effort to implement a feature to channel traffic to a different platform. Not to mention the hassle of managing your Tidal credentials in the Android app (to access your Tidal account's favourites). I would guess that his support to access your favourite songs are the purchase links.
