Following and Followers

[kaefie]

Are the people on Spotify we follow / that follow us listed in any order on Spotify? If I look at a list of people I follow I'm confused as to if it's by date order or their last activity etc. Or is it totally random?

Hey @kaefie,

I believe their are listed by their Spotify username, starting with numbers, and then alphabetically. That should explain why Facebook users are listed first.

Hope it helps. 🙂

Thanks for solving this mystery!
I wondering why you find so few posts about this, I mean... technically it's logic, but logically it's total dumb because for the enduser it's random.

The cryptic user ID has nothing to do with the artist name (I'm following only artists) at all.

I mean, seriously it is sorted by URL, it uses strings like 6wWVKhxIU2cEi0K81v7HvP (Rammstein) to define the order in the year 2018? Why?? 😨
