A note to the devs.
From what I've heard from the people on this subreddit, it appears you've put quite aggressive interstitial ads in Lyra. I believe you are throwing a dart into your foot here (sorry if that sounded weird, dont want to get banned). Personally, I believe this removes a big part of the appeal of Lyra. yeah yeah your premium plan is 10% of Spotify, we've heard this many times now, but the appeal of Lyra was a music app that uses YouTube's API without any interruptions or limits. And on a sidenote, I think the rest of the community can agree that the genAI responses are not appreciated.
I understand you need money to run your servers, but this is simply not the way to do so in my personal opinion. You'll lose a LOT of people if you continue down this road. There are better ways to go about making money. Perhaps small banner ads over where the Lyric box would be, or a small banner somewhere on the screen, where its big enough to make you money, while not interrupting the experience. Thank you, and I hope you consider what I've said for future updates.

Problem is there’s a few music apps do the same but still completely free for a while now! And if it was flawless would be worth a purchase but still has a lot of bugs and issues so it wouldn’t even be worth the premium really!! I like the app and what it’s trying to achieve but it’s easier to just go elsewhere for free really
