What features have been removed from Spotify?

[–] Neato@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nothing if you're a premium user. Being able to pick songs on Free I think.

Plenty of things have been removed from Spotify or just bastardized over the years.

The app is so much less useful overall, so many controls are just gone. It's exhibit A for the dumbing down of modern apps. It went from being mature software designed to give users tools to control their experiences to a ranch designed solely to corral users into singular usage patterns.

I believe they've just placed a bunch of stuff behind their premium subscription, like shuffle/repeat, lyrics, etc.

Interesting. Not a Spotify user, but that’s pretty gross. Looks like the way things are going and I’m becoming more okay with that. There are more and more commodities I’m becoming more and more comfortable not paying for.
