What feature of Spotify was "not very good" for finding new artists?

edit: possible answers might be "Artist Radio", "my Discover Weekly playlist", "Related Artists page", "my Daily Mix playlists"

It's such a shame that bandcamp is the worst music service ever because they have their hearts in the right place.

This is a terrible guide that ignores the best algorithmic recommendations that spotify provides, the "Related Artist" feature from the artist page. If you are a life long music explorer, why didn't you mention the last.fm Similar Artist feature? Concert reminder services like songkick are great for learning which bands are touring with your favorite artists, too, in addition to suggesting artists based on your current likes. This is low effort.

> Wordpress is one of the main reasons the web is so slow

That's a funny way to spell advertising.

WordPress is also a platform that encourages bad takes like this. If I have 50-so plugins that provide me only with tools in the dashboard, logged-out users won't be impacted by any of the fifty.

Compare it to any consumer operating system. It puts a lot of power into the user's hands.

Take the meeting with the free financial advisor your credit union provides. Meet with them once a year for an hour.

I just found out that managed money accounts aren't just for people with more than one million dollars anymore, and moving my money this year will likely make me thousands of dollars over the next 30.

I just can't get on board with that.

Sure, but TVs aren't always on like this Nest device.

This is such an optimistic and hopeful comment. Thanks. I hope you're right.

right, songkick and bandsintown doing just fine and work in any city

Wrong again, that was Herb Sandler. Today is the first day that I read any of these emails, and I already know more than you about them. Why am I here pointing out your misunderstandings of the facts? Shouldn't you have become a steward of the facts before unraveling your thoughts in this thread?

Did he type that at all?

Did you leave a handkerchief 09-02-2014 From: Susan Sandler To: John Podesta The realtor found a handkerchief (I think it has a map that seems pizza-related. Is it yorus? They can send it if you want. I know you’re busy, so feel free not to respond if it’s not yours or you don’t want it.

Are you about to bring up the "pedophile code words" conspiracy theory about those emails on Hackernews?

Telling people that Hillary Clinton's passport is going to be revoked pending her arrest is not just asking questions.

I don't care at all what Dropbox adds to their app on my computer, because I don't use it. It runs, and I ignore it.

I like this. I'm a Discord user with no real life friends on the service interacting with me, but I'd love to be able to suggest channels that don't exist on the WordPress server I use.

He grew his father's liquor store 20x before anyone knew who he was. Your third sentence is a weird way to say he's built upon that early success. As far as, "his real claim to fame," he's responsible for the most recent Planter's Peanuts Superbowl commercial and a pretty big Budweiser basketball campaign. If you think his keynotes have a bigger impact that's a matter than could be debated.

I've never seen Tesla marketing like that.

Did he ever release the alloy of thin metals that he thinks was created in space? That was the thing I heard that caused me to think, "well, hey, if he's got this hunk of space metals, i should probably tune in again."

What other herbivores cook meat before eating it? How do you feel about the amount of kale that goes into one kale smoothie? Were our bodies designed for all these radio waves? The ship has sailed. Evolution will figure it out.
