Yeah, they have all this money and the algorithms are getting more stupid. I hate it when saying “play Travis” (I use voice commands in car) always plays the exact same playlist in the exact same order. They also push the most popular songs on you so if a band you like did a shitty Barbie cover you will hear it all the time. And there’s no dislike button to get rid of it. On my phone I just play custom playlists because the algorithms suck so much.
I haven’t been at the whim of spotify’s bullshit algorithm since years ago when I just stopped playing their radio at all. Maybe I’ll hear one or two songs when the album m listening to ends and I haven’t had a chance to pick what’s next, but I don’t rely on their bullshit. Every song I play I’ve chosen to play.
I’ve stopped using their recommendations (except in my car) for other reason: I no longer knew the albums. It used to be you would get new album from X, you would listen to it couple of times, learn the song titles and think “this new album is awesome/shit/better then the last one”. With Spotify it was just constant stream of songs from the sam e artist without any idea of their artistic progression. I missed that part so now I just listen to whole albums and custom playlists.
I wish removing a song from my Discover weekly or similar lists actually worked. I swear I remove the same song from that playlist for months and it still shows up.
I wish they’d bring the ‘Dislike’ button back. 😔
I wish they brought manually selecting songs back to the free version. 😔

It is a thing on PC
Also on tablets. That made no sense to me. Both are running Android, only the DPI is different.

I can’t understand why people pay for this shit - how is that any better than the radio??
(I still go the cheapskate route and maintain my own library)
No commercials
Better selection of music
Only listen to songs you like
Ability to skip tracks
Ability to listen to whatever you want vs what someone else decides for you
How long of a list are you looking for because this could take all day…

I just want a fuckin star rating system. I want winamp but with Spotify library.
I want the same! To try to make due I made a Playlist for each star category.

There is one if you use the discovery features. Well, it’s not a dislike, but I think it does the same thing, maybe?
