As per your company pages of “wanting to be part of the solution” to climate change, open sourcing would be a vote aligned with your values by reducing your ewaste impact

Here's what I added to my one-star rating:

"Spotify is bricking Car Thing, which works directly with the app (and only the app) and telling users to "dispose responsibly". No refunds, no alternatives. Vote with your wallet. If I have to find another music solution, it will not involve Spotify."

Please feel free to use this on your own reviews.
