There needs to be a fallacy I can simply name for this kind of thinking. In a world where you can't downgrade software 99% of the time, how do you show one of these companies that the change they made is shit and you don't like it? Go on Twitter and complain? "Buying power" is also an extremely crude signal. I might stop using Spotify for all kinds of reasons, like their shoddy revenue sharing. It's not like there are 100 competitors that are each nearly identical except for some specific element like album art size and I can choose the one that agrees with all my UX desires.
Edit:
It seems like a kind of UX paternalism has crept into the software industry. In the Winamp era it was possible to radically customize your music player (even making it massively ugly if you want). Over the years, more and more configuration options have been removed so now you get "dark mode" and that's basically it. Nearly all other options are chosen for you either by designer hubris or, more likely, the vendor's commercial priorities.
