- They removed Album view a few years ago now (version 0.8.4) ... I still have that version installed at home because I like/need it so much.
- They removed starring/favoriting of songs, in favor of some other (add song/add album) thing that just doesn't work the same way despite them asking you to try it that way.
- In the latest version of their app they moved things around that had be in locked positions for YEARS ... for no reason.
- Then they removed the ability to search inside of playlists ... again for no reason you can see the fury of the masses in all its beauty here ... https://community.spotify.com/t5/Help-Desktop-Linux-Mac-and/... ... completely ignored by spotify of course.
- Their mobile app is still mostly great but has a couple of no brainer things that they've never got right (playlists sort in reverse order from what you'd expect, now you can't delete a song from a play list without editing the entire play list etc etc etc
Spotify just stopped caring about what the people wanted a long time ago ... they've gotten slow and bloated and I bet they have an army of Product managers poring over all sorts of data and making these weird decisions, instead of engaging their common sense ... either way ... if something comes along that has a bit more soul, and love for its customers ... I'm off in a heart beat, and yes, I've paid the full price for spotify for almost 4-5 years now.
