I only see this mentality here. On Spotify, I search for a song I want to hear and I play it. Or I add it to a playlist. What more do you want? For it to sense your mood and queue up what you played last year during Oct-November before 10 am while you were driving?
I don't understand how the tech crowd thinks Spotify is so hard to use. My 70 year old parents have no issues navigating it.
- lucsky 2y agoNot "hard" to use, no, nobody's saying that. But painful to use for anything else than scroll/click/play, absolutely yes. Active music discovery is terrible, tracking your "progress" in your weekly releases listening is actively being made impossible (the list is seemingly being re-randomized, at random), the obsessive emphasis on tracks rather than albums or artists is very limiting, UIs are not flexible enough, and I could go on for a while. All streaming clients are currently hot garbage. Again, not hard to use, just extremely user hostile for anything more than click and play.
- averageRoyalty 2y agoI find it frustrating, not difficult. My "offline" songs are sometimes no longer downloaded. Trying to navigate to my saved songs takes me past multiple ads for podcasts I don't care about, and looking up an artist gives me ads for shows they're playing or their new albums. I just want my collection of music and to be able to play it without wading through a sea of garbage.
