Feature request: when opening an album, disable shuffle by default

Plan: Premium

Country: United States

Devices: Essential PH-1, Android 9, (also occurs on desktop computer running Xubuntu 18.04 + Spotify Linux client)

My Question or Issue

I would like to see a feature/option where the shuffle feature is disabled automatically when I open an album and start playing the first song. (It might also make sense to support it when opening a playlist). I do frequently use/enjoy the shuffle feature, but when a user selects to play an album, the album should not be randomzied by default.

Very happy with the platform overall minus this one frustrating issue, glad I made the choice to move here from Google Music.
