If you believe it or not, your view is not the only right one. I'm not even saying my perspective is necessarily right for this person.

The responses to these threads are always the same. If they really worked, people would get out of their depression, but they mostly don't. Maybe it is useful to hear something different.

don’t have anything to look forward to in life

You conveniently left out the "except". Are you trying to deliberately make them feel even worse? They actually have something to look forward to. That is actually amazing. Acting as if it doesn't count is just... Wow, I don't know.

I don’t even want to listen to music anymore.

People's tastes change. What they want to spend their time on changes. It's not a big deal if someone doesn't want to listen to music anymore. It has been shown that making less of a big deal out of things helps with depression.

if everything was just fine and dandy, he wouldn’t have posted this,

Maybe apply your reading comprehension skills to my post as well. Obviously I know that not everything is fine and dandy. I'm offering a different perspective than anything that was posted in this thread. Different perspectives are valuable, even if mine turns out to be wrong for this person. Through interacting with people and getting in contact with lots of different perspectives you can also actually get out of depression.

smiley nihilism energy isn’t helpful or appealing tbh

Again, for you. For me it actually got me out of depression, even though you'll probably not believe me. Maybe it works for them, maybe it doesn't. But you just being contrarian is definitely not helping anything.
