I’m having issues getting the microphone on my sony headphones to work on my steam deck. I was figuring it is due to missing drivers as well

Spotify has been garbage for so long. I left when the Joe Rogan stuff got so bad and artists were demanding to have their music removed from Spotify in response.

You can buy music and maintain your own personal collection. It was not as hard as I thought it would be and the quality is so much higher. Artists get more of the money as well from you.
