Damn social logins. The biggest one is Spotify. They require you to make a whole new account instead of just unlinking your FB one, and then all of your playlists etc are gone.
I’m going to set aside a day to migrate all of my services, but it’s going to be a pain. Worth it.
- bnewton149 9y agoI did this a couple months ago. You can share playlists from your original account with your new account and copy them over. You can even make a playlist of your saved songs and and save them all at once to your new library (select all > Save to your Library)
- throwaway413 9y agoAwesome, thanks for the tips.
- dishanr 9y agoYou can ask the Spotify customer service to migrate your data from the old account to the new one. I did and they transferred all my content.
- throwaway413 9y agoI actually did contact them and ask and they were the ones that told me to just open a new account as they couldn’t disconnect it (which I obviously knew to be BS). Maybe I’ll try again asking even nicer...thanks for sharing.
- wvenable 9y agoI made the smart choice a long time ago to never use one of those social logins. It actually kept me off of Stackoverflow for a long time. I'm not even particularly socially minded or privacy conscious -- I just don't think one coordinated login is a good idea.
- throwaway413 9y agoSmart choice, wish I didn’t make that mistake.
