Exactly my thoughts. I wish that designers stop pushing mobile-feel UI to the desktop. It is not user friendly

you are right, but: lets not disperse the criticism. this way please: https://community.spotify.com/t5/App-Features/Revert-the-terrible-new-user-interface-on-Desktops-ASA...

Hi all!

 

If you would like, there is a compact mode option to return the sidebar to a similar state as the old one.

Here's how to get it as close as possible to the old sidebar:

 

In the left "Your Library" sidebar, click on the "Playlists" filter.

 

Then, in the sort drop down select "Custom order". You will then see your previous playlist order and be able to reorganize your playlists (move playlists and folders like before)

 

Your current preference will be remembered each time you start up the Spotify desktop app.

 

If you would like to only see text in the Your Library sidebar, go to the Spotify app Settings ---> Library ---> and select "use compact library".

 

You can also drag the left sidebar to different sizes, as well as fully expand the sidebar by clicking the arrow button, and fully collapse the sidebar by clicking on the "Your Library" heading.



 

You can also access the old Your Library page by pressing Alt + Shift + 1-4 on your keyboard.

 

 

Please click here for more information about the new UI.
