    Is this why my wife is constantly complaining that her playlists constantly keep playing the same songs over and over?

      My favourite example of Spotify being shit is:

      I want to play an album, so I go to it and press play. Then a bit later I want to queue a second album after the first one is done. How do I do that? As far as I can tell the answer is to go fuck myself. I have start a new queue or playlist with both albums in it.

      That’s apart from all the basic software quality stuff like randomly restarting the queue.

      Edit: so now I use finamp with jellyfin, which I can actually fix when it does something I hate.

        Spotifys UX has always been terrible. We all got used to having crappy software. It’s too convenient that’s AI also makes crappy vibecode without supervision. No one will notice anything.

        The point of these apps is to leech as much money as possible.

        An opposing goal would be to make the app better for users.
