Hello everyone, I use spotify since my times in Sweden so this goes to like 3/4 years ago and I've been along for the ride and enjoying every single moment. Also I'm a UX/UI Designer and this is the reason why I'm making this suggestion, since I found it very useful for better defining what is what

I usually explore some users public music to better understand taste and discover new music, but when you encounter this problem, it becomes a 'waste of time' going through many Popular Playlists that I already know or that I have to click to see if its from that user, and with the new layout it becomes even harder due to the fact that the Playlist Creator isn't displayed directly under the playlist overview anymore (in older versions the layout had the 'owner' in plain sight). Suggestion / Solution / Idea: So, there are several solutions for this, either finding a way to fit the username in the playlist 'face' again, add a 'sort by user' option or... And this is my real suggestion: Add a New Tab to the User Profile with the name "Self Playlists" or something similar ( "User Playlists" maybe ), and use the "Public Playlists" one, to display those that that specific user is following, or rename it to something like "Followed Playlists".
