Personally I consider the best alternative is Spotify, and I know, it's a telemetry and tracker nightmare but you don't necessarily need to create an account using your main email, you can use a temporary email exclusively for your spotify account.
Personally, I used ViMusic and Moosync for a long time but then I really considered that at the end of the day I'm depending on Google and I'm giving my information to Google even though I'm using a front-end, which is not even a proxy, it's Google.
In this case I consider that fragmentation is better, Spotify can't recognize me from other services and I give less information to Google.
I have tried spotify but i just think youtube music is better bc sometimes there are versions of songs which are available in video only and you can listen to those songs in yt music.
