Honestly, the AdGuard method used to be good but then became a bigger pain in the ass later after some MacOS updates and sometimes connectivity breaks for no reason so I would recommend against that one and use the script method. You can run a script or you can install a pirated version of AdGuard for Desktop then add Spotify to the filtered app list and be good. Instructions are also already pre linked. The old tools haven't been updated in a while. Run the script in the terminal linked below. Don't have experience with that but I will link the install instrucitons for those intersted in it. Others have mentioned EZBlocker but I have no experience with that but I will link it for those interested.Įdit: Others have discussed using Spicetify and it has an extension to remove ads and the upgrade button. Just follow the instructions linked below and you should be good to go. You can't go wrong with either just use whichever you prefer. You can also use SpotX which is supposed to be based off of BlockTheSpot but has additional features such as update disabling. But I've only had experience with BlockTheSpot and I've been using it for a while with auto update disabled and I've been pleased with it. Supposedly the DLL Injection method is better as it's supposed to be more resistant against auto updates and supposedly more stable. One is BlocktheSpot and there is the DLL injection method. With that out of the way, let's get started.īefore we get started would just like to say I didn't invent any of this and all credit goes to their respective authors I'm just trying to make a guide for the rest of us. Since this information is scattered all over the place, I figured I would do you guys a favor and try to consolidate all the methods and guides and methods all into one place. If you already know it then that's about it. If you are wondering what's new about this one compared to the last one, the Mac + Linux section has been updated, made mentions of Spicetify as many seem to like it, as well as making reference to r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH and their Spotify section. Was going to edit the old one but the thread got archived unforunately.
