Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yep. Three taps in and I'm already hitting "premium" screens. No thanks.

There seems to be an option to x out of the signup, on a laptop. But it looks like there are lots of complaints from phone users? (or I assume as much, since you say tap rather than click).

Yeah was on mobile

I've downloaded few mixes with relaxing music from YT and created a playlist in my foobar, it's simple and it doesn't require browser. I also recommend some radio streams: https://somafm.com http://echoesofbluemars.org/ https://plaza.one/

Foobar?

It's a relatively minimal gui mp3 player application.

If you are into binaural beats, you can try listening to this: [link redacted] I made it with a piece of software many years ago (seriously! It was a DOS program). It's the sound that most consistently puts me into a trance. I put it on Soundcloud to make sure I wouldn't lose it, because I have no way of recreating it and all the apps and videos I have found don't work nearly as well for me.

Sbagen, by any chance? That program was quite handy, but it does take a little elbow grease getting it to run these days. I have done it though with the help of "padsp" (ships with pulseaudio). I always loved the "-p drop" sequences it had; nice way to progressively go further and further down the rabbit hole.

Just type in something you feel in YouTube and you get that kind of music. Relaxed coding music, tavern programming music, melodic slow dungeon music, dark church chill music. Celtic modern electronic lounge music, wizard fantasy medevil dubstep relaxed music, sad jungle music, back to 90s synthwave modern music, truckers traffic jam music. You name it. I am amazed how many genres there are out there. I listen it all…
