  • TheQueensInTown jess⁷ 🧈🥞 💜 stream BUTTER 💛 (@TheQueensInTown) reported

    @Spotify is trying very hard to shove that girl down our throats and i want to puke. (nothing against her, it's not her fault).

  • tynakryss 💜💚TynaKryss 🧈💚💜ᴮᴱ⁷ (@tynakryss) reported

    This problem with spotify needs to be handled somehow. We are going to have this problem all the time😪

  • piedpipcper cata ⁷🧈 (@piedpipcper) reported

    @Spotify @SpotifyCares WE NEED ANSWERS RN WE ARE DONE WAITING. We pay with our own money for a service that your app provides the LEAST you could do is be transparent. #InvestigateSpotify

  • cb97ada 生ada⁷‧₊✜˚. (@cb97ada) reported

    @AtannOlga @Spotify #InvestigateSpotify @Spotify To think all this happened in 3 days yet we got 0 information from you is highly offensive and i as a paid user for years now demand transparency about the issue

  • Cam7twt ˗ˏˋᴮᴱCamille⁷ˎˊ˗ 🇯🇲 🧈 (@Cam7twt) reported

    @milistradamus For some, the issue is that unless you have Spotify it doesn't allow the sync. That's limiting people who do want to join.

  • HKookie9497 Jill I Koobi⁷ I BTS Lockdown!! (@HKookie9497) reported

    @hoseokthirsty I have been using Spotify since 2015-2016 when I was in grade school and have been using premium for nearly 3 years... Can't believe I wasted so much money on such a corrupt service that can't be transparent-

  • captainmoonbun 🪐 shawn the sleep⁷ {59.4k} (@captainmoonbun) reported

    @junghomobi ah yes,, it's sad that spotify has become so polluted, it was a great service initially sigh

  • cigarettedayd14 gene (@cigarettedayd14) reported

    spotify has put shaggys “it wasn’t me” on 3/3 of my blends and i’m starting to become concerned about what the service/my friends think about me

  • lsgrlr 🧈Lulu ⁷ᴺᵒ¹ ⟭⟬ BTS ⟬⟭ connected to 7G since ²⁰¹³ (@lsgrlr) reported

    To be clear, the lack of transparency is not a BTS issue. They're many indie bands, whose fans support them hard. For a site that's all about "fan choice" it seems odd that @Spotify deletes views without letting the fans they've gifted with "choice" know why.

  • DonCelione Don Celione (@DonCelione) reported

    @hannahdulset96 Honestly this is embarrassing for a company with the pedigree of Spotify.. they are effectively a technology company, and you can’t drill down into the origin of the streams? That’s the only business value I’d think Spotify would even have

  • namj00ningg Sai⁷ thinking about n-ice guy🧈 (@namj00ningg) reported

    There is no major issue with YouTube and Apple Music stream counts like there is with Spotify,, pls use that fact to our benefit and stream hard there. Regarding spotify, pls don't give up and stream like you should. Buy and stream!

  • T_REV757 T-REV (@T_REV757) reported

    @postcardraps It hurts to see someone having the same problem as me my music is mixed up on two different Spotify bc they ****** up and they don't even answer to fix it

  • chimcuddles n⁷ 🧈 (@chimcuddles) reported

    @ksjmelodies Yeah like after you login, you have to go to your Spotify and select the songs in their queue manually

  • MayaPark28 ᴮᴱDiana ⟭⟬⁷🇦🇷 🍟🧈Butter is HERE AND IS SMOOTH! (@MayaPark28) reported

    No but for real I'm disgusted by the service @spotify is providing, I've been a paid user for years, but if they keep trying to shove the artists that are under the management label, I'm definitely going to change my music provider.

  • BaesInLuv ᴸᵘˡᵘ💛BTS LOCKDOWN🧈 (@BaesInLuv) reported

    @Aishakh03268958 @koockiemon Are you getting past the login choice for Apple or Spotify?

  • mongjamie06 UGHHHHHH JAMIE (@mongjamie06) reported

    It doesn't matter who it is. Spotify, a STREAMING SERVICE, should not be allowed to sponsor promotions for anyone. It is literally a conflict of interests and completely unethical. @Spotify @SpotifyCares #InvestigateSpotify

  • daechwitannies nat⁷ 🍊 (@daechwitannies) reported

    @seesawlvr they're basically saying "yeah idk what the problem so there's nothing yall can do about it bc we're not gonna investigate",,,,, they're SPOTIFY!! they're worth billions and billions of dollars!! trying to say they don't have enough resources no no no i'm pissed san

  • kngnlouise do the boogie 🧈!!⁷⁺¹ (@kngnlouise) reported

    this issue is literally not new. aside from the rise of the 'pay-to-play'/'payola' controversies,, there's also the issue of spotify not properly compensating artists on their platforms

  • cb97ada 生ada⁷‧₊✜˚. (@cb97ada) reported

    @AtannOlga @Spotify #InvestigateSpotify @Spotify How would you explain uploading song with bad mixing, delaying that songs data reveal by 3 days, showing glitches of it having <1k streams and artist only 1 follower, shutting down app for artists to see their numbers, filtering 50% of stream of that+

  • faedeukae chrissy⋆̩☽ (@faedeukae) reported

    also, why is butter such low quality on spotify??? am i the only one having this issue???? all my other songs sound perfectly fine. #InvestigateSpotify

  • NightsDream05 Lucia M.⁷ | 🧈 (@NightsDream05) reported

    What's the point on paying for your service, if you will treat me, a costumer, as a bot. @Spotify

  • gay_supernova Tan (@gay_supernova) reported

    @fcrgetmcnot spotify having all the problems recently

  • bruneaux_mahs 🥀 (@bruneaux_mahs) reported

    What the hell is this issue with BTS and Spotify? #InvestigateSpotify

  • HECKSCAPER 𝙚𝙢𝙢𝙖 (@HECKSCAPER) reported

    @OfficialJairusB you can remix/release whatever (i do not have the resources for that song, its 15+ years old and lost in a crash a decade or more ago) but as per my terms i prefer stuff with my melodic content doesn't appear on spotify because it creates content ID problems down the road.

  • Kaiern Kai Gulliksen (@Kaiern) reported

    The @Spotify Android app seems to be really broken at the moment. At least for listening to podcasts. Anyone else having trouble?

  • boratae11 Sammy⁷ (@boratae11) reported

    @elliotsang @Spotify @SpotifyCares Can you help with this issue?

  • EgyptOfficiaI Karim (@EgyptOfficiaI) reported

    @SpotifyCares My entire Umm Kulthuum playlist is empty now. And dont give me the default licensing issues reply please. Just lmk when/if they'll be back. (Ps arsenal sucks)

  • HECKSCAPER 𝙚𝙢𝙢𝙖 (@HECKSCAPER) reported

    @OfficialJairusB posting it yourself on YT, Soundcloud, even selling on bandcamp is all great, but i do not trust Spotify to begin with and any ****** systems they roll out will be nothing but problems for other musicians.

  • chartbangtan (@chartbangtan) reported

    @JuneRose1001 @eyenssi Switch from the website to Spotify it starts playing that way. I have the same problem

  • dazedmnths Kat (@dazedmnths) reported

    You know we are actually doing well and our spotify streams are actually good. I don't know what's the problem with yt though
