  @SpotifyCares I am sorry but I cannot have you force me change my password every single week. Everytime asking me for a more and more difficult password. This is an awful customer experience and I will not hesitate to leave this ****** service.

  @helloitsajh I had this issue with my Spotify wrap-up last year because I also used it for sleep stories (which would play ALL NIGHT LONG) soooo that kinda skewed it.

  @benny86sound @mupet0000 @lastfmstatus It would be nice if they reported on it. I asked them to explain exactly what the problem is, but they are silent. I'm not talking about regular Spotify disconnects or just usual small delays, but about these multihours functional deaths like today.

  @AskRockStars Oh um... didnt expect to see a verified spotify expert. I just cant login with my email directly even when i reset my account password.

  @Spotify y’all smart getting JRE... I wouldn’t use your terrible platform if it wasn’t for him. Can’t even play his episodes 😒

  @Swiftsbeatles bad bunny still wouldn't have broken folklore's record even if Spotify was live

  @AlexKrallman Brands that would find this app useful would be those that provide a service/product that doesn't require visual appeals. Businesses like @Spotify and @espn who operate mainly on audio. #UNCWMKTG #ICMKTG

  I act like I’m fine, but deep down.. I just want to listen to @Jacquees ‘s Trip remix on Spotify or at least SoundCloud

  JunkFoodConnoisseur (@Junkfoodjunkie) reported 40 minutes ago

  Dear @Spotify, why does your app close down by itself if paused with no connected headset for a while? It's bloody annoying. If I turn off my headset, that doesn't mean I want the app to close 😕

  It's MISTER ******* (@juggalon9ne) reported 41 minutes ago

  @slapmytweetbox Update time for Spotify is usually 11 pm locally. I don't think it's a time issue. Gotta be something else cuz the song is also completely gone

  Remember when willow was only 2 points away from losing the #1 and folklore streaming record was almost broken if Spotify didn’t shut down for an hour We were so lucky omg

  @Spotify I have an account with mobile number that I use daily, but I do have another account with my email which I don’t use , and I want that (unused account ) email for my primary account ie with phone number for login, as my mobile number is not always available

  @Monocle24 should my Monocle podcast RSS feeds have stopped updating since Monday morning even though there are new shows? Apple podcasts website and Spotify reporting the same so it may be a feed issue (unless of course I have messed it up and also messed up checking!).

  @drexmhack I know it would be an issue with copyright but imagine you could connect it to your Spotify

  @RTErugby Love the podcast great insight into the game, the only issue I have is the audio quality. I listen to a lot of podcast due to lockdown and unfortunately this one has to be one of the worst for minor cut outs. Spotify is the platform I use.

  They should have bought $SPOT or $P (when it was around). If Beats was worth 4 bil, they could have paid for a decent music service. I’ve subscribed to both Pandora and Apple Music forever, but re-discovered how awesome Spotify is this week.

  @IAmTimBaker @Spotify @AppleMusic I'm the other way around, I've mostly used AM while my family used Spotify, but when I'd use the latter we'd constantly have issues where me trying to listen during my commute knocked their music off of their Alexa device. And I hate the Spotify podcast UI.
