Long article for a single comment: I quit Spotify because I can’t customise the home page which pushes podcasts and music I’m not interested in.
For me I navigate my music via My Liked songs + my own playlists for particular moods. If I open the app and press play it defaults to where I left off.
The fact there is a home page which shows options similar to what I like is fine, sometimes useful. Yes I’d prefer to customise it. Yes the recommendations aren’t perfect. Not a reason to quit, I love Spotify and haven’t found a better alternative.
The one major gripe is not being able to upload my own songs, I love listening to remixes and covers, youtube, spotify or tiktok has plenty of songs I’d love in my library. But it’s a nightmare for a business model that respects artists and a cost structure that needs to be covered. Again, no real good alternatives that do this well + have a normal library + be legal.
