Been using Qobuz for several months now. Pretty happy with it overall so far. You can get full audio quality via browser, which is great since lots of services have poor Linux support.

Same here
I loved last FM when it came out, best recommendation engine in its days. Then they kinda died and reborn into you tube powered.
Moved to Spotify, then the paid bit rate was down graded.
Then moved to Deezer, but the buffering and errors after a few hours play are really annoying.
This week my qobuz trial was over, so I cancelled Deezer and I'm paying for qobuz.
Streaming services are kinda a commodity now, the catalogs are basically the same, except Pandora that had a better coverage for Nina Pastori than others. But this also changed from time to time.
I currently use tidal and I'm thinking of switching. The most important feature of an audio streaming service for me is, audio radio. Meaning, I have a base playlist and I want it to auto generate it with more similar songs so it doesn't stop. New discoveries are important too.
Does it offer this recommendation feature? The last time I briefly checked it I didn't find information about that. I'd like some confirmation before I begin merging my 1k+ liked songs...
I'm interested, but does anyone know if there's something like a ReVanced version for it so I can use it for free without ads, like I can with YouTube Music ReVanced?

Unfortunately they're not available everywhere.
I'm pretty happy with Tidal so far; I tried Qobuz back when I was looking for an alternative to Spotify and I remember the Android app being borderline unusable. I might be misremembering things though.
Last time I used qobuz it had the worst UI in history and no way to discover music or was awful, I am now on Tidal and it's brilliant.
