Just put it in mono. Now, how can I fix this infamous autotune trend?

this kind of comment just reminds me of how people used to complain about distortion on electric guitars when it was initially discovered/invented/popularized

For me, your comparison falls short in the sense that electric guitar distortions actually amplified the audio resources musicians had to express ideas and textures. Autotune was initially a tool that also did enhance the set of tools musicians had before it appeared, however, the lack of creative uses compared to the amount of use it gets in the industry, makes it a trope to my ears. Autotune feels like a Marvel Comics hero movie at this point.

I’m in favor. Atmospheric / jazzy / “intelligent” drum and bass is amazing.

Just ignore that crap and put some real shit into your headphones. Like The Cramps - Songs The Lord Taught Us.

Play it loaded.

I just love this kind of personal recommendation instead of the same shit Spotify and every streaming/scrobbling service keeps recommending. Sure I will, thank you.

Instrumental-only music?

You mean quantized, snapped-to-the-grid instrumental music? Sigh.

there is plenty of non-quantized instrumental music if you’re willing to look, and even then dismissing all music doesn’t forego a strict grid (which in the modern day is simply a choice and artist can choose to make) is dismissing a massive body of work just because it doesn’t use a technique that you like

For me personally? I mean shit like this. Love it ^_^

For you, I have no idea what kind of music you’re into, but there are a ton of options for instrumental.
