MAJOR BUMMER: Reset everyone's "Listening Activity" settings back to how they were!

MAJOR BUMMER: Spotify quite recently made an update where they changed everyone default settings to private. And you wouldn't even know until you took the time to be on your desktop app, notice you no longer saw any of your friends' listening activity, thought there was something wrong with your app, did everything under the sun to fix it, only to find out they made this major bummer of an update.

The Listening Activity panel was one of my favorite features on Spotify - such a fun social element to the app. Now everyone needs to go in and adjust their settings so that not only their friends' show up for them, but also so that they show up for their friends. And most people have no idea they need to do this. So, short of contacting every single personal you are friends w / following / your followers and telling them, everyone will just have to eventually figure this out and then potentially take the time and effort to update their settings.

BASICALLY: This update is a major bummer - Spotify, don't change people's settings for them. It's just not necessary, it's confusing, it's weird. Really hope enough people see this and are bugged by it that Spotify just goes back to the default being that your friends, followers, and followees can see each other's Listening Activity.

I'm on Mac version 1.1.91. and listening activity is where it's always been and none of my settings have been changed. Are a lot of people having this problem?
