Do you listen to your music in lossy or lossless quality?

Whatever Spotify spits at me.
My hardware nor ears are good enough to go full audiophile anyway.
I am fine with anything better than <2009 youtube tier.

Just the other week i converted all my collection to lossless flacs.
About 300GB of mp3s now take up around 1TB but totally woth it! Looking back it seems so stupid to store lossy music.

It's not possible. You can't restore what has been lost by lossy encoding. This has to be a troll or complete retard.
And modern codecs with reasonable file sizes are lossy, but have so little loss it is not noticeable unless you have like perfect hearing and a top of the line hi-fi setup. For 99% of people with normal ears and normal audio hardware it does not matter.
But audiophiles also buy gold cables, so there's that.

I only listen to the "Pure Focus"-playlist on Apple music when I wörk (calm electronic music without singing). Sometimes some calm folky stuff and every couple of months I listen to Irish Rebel songs on YouTube.

Lossless = no information is lost (popular codecs: FLAC, ALAC, WAV)
Lossy = compressed, information is lost (popular codecs: MP3, Vorbis, AAC)

no lossy conversion is literally cutting off more then two thirds of the sound spectrum.

Sound has these dimensions: amplitude, frequency, and phase. The human ear can only hear a spectrum of amplitude (1000 Hz - 5000 Hz) and frequency (20 Hz - 20 kHz).
Mp3 and other lossy formats generally try and remove at a minimum what the human ear cannot hear but often will remove more, lossless formats like flac do not remove anything.
Almost all formats include compression, because you can compress files without data loss.
