Bad shuffle

Hi, guys. Shuffle works terribly, I hear the same songs every day, I reinstalled Spotify, cleared the cache, but still I hear the same songs every day.
Please change the algorithm, or do something about it. Thanks

They changed the shuffle a year or two ago from a computationally random one to a new one which "appears" more random. I hate it because I keep hearing the same songs all the time. I've got a playlist with ~150 songs and I hear about 20 of them multiple times in the same time where I haven't heard a large chunk of them at all.

I really wish they'd at least give us the option of using the old shuffle.

I have about 700 songs, and I have acquired the skill to guess the next song, lol.
Sometimes I even marvel at some of the songs, because I have not heard them before
