  • EternalRemorse 💀🌹becki🌹💀 (@EternalRemorse) reported

    Spotify got back to me about my playlist and said it was reported in error. So it sounds like it wasn't a person but maybe an algorithm or something.

    Anybody have any thoughts on Spotify vs YouTube premium? I don't know which one to choose or maybe a different service?

  • chrstnmyng christine miyoung (@chrstnmyng) reported

    does anyone else remember when the super emotional music video for lindsay lohan’s confessions of a broken heart would play on mtv at like 2 am in the early 00’s. anyways i’ve gone down a weird spotify rabbit hole

  • Kategawa3 Kategawa (aka. The Virgin Reaper) (@Kategawa3) reported

    @Wriggle_the_bug //That will be tommorow, where I can finally come back to the wifi at home, Because holy **** I can't handle this anymore, images load way slower, Discord takes forever to load, Youtube videos don't work, Spotify takes longer to load songs, Yeah.. A lot of problems.

  • cptGhostboy Femboy Ghost-chan (@cptGhostboy) reported

    @Reedfly2sky What do you mean spotify is hard to navigate, I both use the mobile and desktop version and have no trouble but i have been using spotify for like 8+ years now

  • AshtonDev Ashton Williams (@AshtonDev) reported

    @bazscott Spotify only works if you manually AirPlay from another device, can’t use Siri to start playback of any kind. Without Apple Music you get a lot of errors telling you to sub. Control of the Apple TV isn’t as seamless as I would like - I just want “Hey Siri” on Apple TV tbh

  • IggyChan13 iggy-chan, the sad bitch (@IggyChan13) reported

    @Spotify please stop messing up 2NE1 discography on your service. I made sure there were no Japanese versions on a certain playlist of mine but they are always messed up every few months. Not the disrespect for the year 202NE1 please!

  • catgirlalisa ini (@catgirlalisa) reported

    spotify really not working huh

  • TeaTimePlans Rej • Software Analyst | Digital Planner (@TeaTimePlans) reported

    Okay @Spotify a bit disappointed that there's an issue with the Podcasts progress syncing. Apparently, this has been reported back in 2019 but still hasn't been resolved yet.

  • leximariahmusic Lexi Mariah (@leximariahmusic) reported

    Guys idk what’s going on but Waterfall and Oh Boy have just randomly disappeared from Spotify. I’m working on the issue. Damn great start to the new year huh?!

  • ajunicebot moo★ (@ajunicebot) reported

  • Chamodhhh Chamodh Samaranayake (@Chamodhhh) reported

  • alves_42 Vitor Pereira/Pulga (@alves_42) reported

    @lastfm Spotify scrobbles not working.

  • CElston Christopher Elston Photography (@CElston) reported

    Is there a way to download @joerogan’s podcast on @Spotify without the video? Gigantic file and I can’t stream in a bunch of places I travel because of bad cell service.

  • backulin Sergey (@backulin) reported from Gorod Ivanovo, Ivanovskaya Oblast’

    @SpotifyCares Hi again i fixed issue by logout from 7+ all right now

  • hthejambo Harry temple (@hthejambo) reported

    @SpotifyCares help I already have an existing premium account and I'm trying to upgrade to family but I'm having issues with trying to register my kids

  • jeg1972 John Gardner 🇪🇺 (@jeg1972) reported

    3/3 Also, I have a problem with streaming services ignoring all of the metadata relating to tracks... This information was important to me when I was growing up and it will get list, but Tidal still store this... So this year I'm junking Spotify and going with @TIDAL.

  • evange1ium evange1ium (@evange1ium) reported

    @SpotifyCares Thanks guys but a password reset on the account and corresponding email account should be sufficient. I’ve disconnected all devices before I did the resets so I’m satisfied that it’s resolved. I hope the person enjoyed the service though and signs up for herself.

  • chrstnmyng christine miyoung (@chrstnmyng) reported

    does anyone else remember when the super emotional music video for lindsay lohan’s confessions of a broken heart would play all the time at like 2 am in the early 00’s. anyways i’ve gone down a weird spotify rabbit hole

  • slut4larries k ♡’s em (@slut4larries) reported

    i’ve been noticing a pattern in harry spotify rankings and listeners, i’ve taken a screenshot every ten days and every time he goes down by 10 spaces and pretty much the same amount of listeners

  • ElleMBH Elle (@ElleMBH) reported

    @JamesMarriottYT I am determined to get HIM on my spotify wrapped just like I did slow down. It's not even a case of trying it's a case of I *will*

  • urcocainne miku (@urcocainne) reported

    ddnies need to calm down, it's not a studio version, there's no Apple music or Spotify link, it's just a xiaojun singing a cover with a theater background plssss

  • Tiezzymeister Tiezzy (@Tiezzymeister) reported

    @SpotifyCares Windows 10, 1.1.48.625.g1c87c7f7 windows store version, a restart of the application worked but my main problem is with the amount of these small bugs and inconsistencies in the android app and windows app

  • mennopot Menno Pot (@mennopot) reported

    @lastfmstatus No scrobbles have appeared on my profile for the last 21 hours or so... Spotify scrobbling appears to be down completely.

  • NotAlwaysWeak Lauren (@NotAlwaysWeak) reported

    Forget Spotify Wrapped; I want Steam Wrapped. 'You played 50+ hours of Among Us! However, we've calculated that five of those were spent looking for lobbies, two were spent hitting refresh when the server dropped out, and two were spent explaining Hide and Seek rules again!'

  • IzzyBelle_RoA izzyBelle! ✿ 🏳️‍⚧️ (@IzzyBelle_RoA) reported

    and sure the ability to skip it is nice, but the problem is people are going to listen to spotify in the car, in the middle of video games, during the middle of assignments, etc and CANT skip; they're fully aware of this and are going to abuse it. 👍
