As much as I dislike Spotify, I've definitely discovered some 10/10 tracks or artists that I would've been unlikely to have found out about otherwise. I don't know how well it still works these days since I switched to Qobuz years ago (which is great in everything except personal recommendations), but Spotify's algorithms, especially for Discover Weekly, used to be amazing. There was an article about all the kinds of stuff they do, and it included things like recommending less frequently played tracks with acoustic similarities to your favourites, and tracks presented on music blogs that also featured music you like. The stuff the engineers got to play around with there before the service started getting enshittified, basically.
