Maybe because no matter what I do, I cannot get current streaming sites to recommend music as well as they did back in the Pandora and LastFM days.
And it's not just that I'm pickier and set in my ways, there are songs that I liked that were recommended to me then based on my other songs that I still have in the modern platforms now that haven't ever come up.
Meanwhile I'm skipping songs and thumbs-downing continuously and it won't learn. It just goes round and round the same few silos, none of which are quite right.

- pull_my_finger 4y agoIs the ignoring of thumbs down and skips just lazily (not) dealing with the threat of people nuking content a la Reddit downvote brigades?
- Oxidation 4y agoI don't know if that's an issue for music streamers or not (I guess if you allow one person's thumbs downs to affect others too much and there are millions of them... Maybe?) But also seems like it would be a pretty trivial thing to filter out of the genuine signal for companies that literally exist by processing that data.
