I think Tidal scores the best among music streaming services in terms of compensating artists. I switched from Spotify to Tidal several months ago and have no regrets
While it isn’t a lot more in general it is still about three times of Spotify. It also takes into consideration which artists you actually stream afaik, so that your money goes more towards those.

It’s estimated that Tidal pays $0.013 per stream, Spotify pays $0.003 - $0.005, and Apple pays $0.01 per stream.

I doubt it pays much better, the issue might be partially the distribution, but mainly that they are too cheap.

Look like Tidal pays 4x more than Spotify on average. For small artists, it’s likely hundreds of times more.
