Cross-platform Spotify alternatives? (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for a FOSS alternative to Spotify, preferably one that works across Android, MacOS, and Windows.

Does anything like that exist?

On Android, I'm using ViMusic. Works great!
On MacOS, I've tried nuclear and Spotube. Neither seems to work great.
Haven't tried anything on Windows yet.

Suggestions appreciated. Thanks lemmy!

That's true. However, FOSS usually means that it's free (F) and open-source (OS). Music isn't usually open source - they don't usually share the sheet music or allow free editing/covering/forking of the music. So the worlds don't completely mesh. You can look at a FOSS solution for managing music, but you won't find a ton of FOSS music.
