But if I was a paying customer i would be pretty pissed opening Spotify the first time on my 3 week travels and seeing this crap :-O Funnily there isn’t even an option to change the location as suggested. Neither in the modded app nor on spotify.com on FF mobile.
Just like how a community centered around recreational drugs is going to recommend against taking drugs if it puts your life in danger, or a python community telling you to learn C if you want to do embedded programming, or a hammer community telling you to use a screwdriver on a screw.
Why don’t they? You’re saying that a piracy forum has no place for discussing anything that isn’t promoting piracy. I’m telling you that it does, because the topic of piracy includes the topic of when one should or should not pirate.

Ya lol piracy communities famously never discuss anything that isnt piracy. Like how every music tracker forum has the vanity label category with independent musicians with bandcamp links or like https://torrentfreak.com/?s=spotify
If the services are fulfilling the needs that the customers have, no piracy is needed. There are some issues, like this, but for the most part, Spotify is quite good currently.
This is your own moral and ethical understanding of piracy, but this is a forum that centers around piracy. It makes sense to start a discussion about views and what not, but it doesn’t make sense to promote paid services over piracy in that way.

Its insane to promote paying services over pirating like this in a piracy forum. Kids what went wrong? Why are you like this?
Why do I get the feeling you might be younger than the average age here? Maybe missing an /s?

Those are some of the randomest and funnyest examples lol. And they make sence bravo
You can see yourself that those examples don’t align very well with streaming music right?

So you refuse to pay for a service no matter what?
No
OP clearly states in the post they are using a modified APK to get premium access without paying
