How can I switch the “Based on your recent activity” from showing playlists to new artists?

How can I switch the “Based on your recent activity” from showing playlists to new artists?

Hi, I was looking around my Spotify earlier and saw that my “Based on recent activity” category was changed to artists I haven’t heard from before (it had originally been playlists). I was able to find a few new artists from this new feature but it disappeared and now the category is back to playlists. How can I switch it back so it shows me new artists? Thanks!

Hey, I've been through the same before. Apparently, Spotify sometimes randomly displays playlists containing artists which are unique and quite different from what you listen to, it then switches back to what it was earlier. Because you can't get it back on your Spotify home screen,

1. You could go to the accounts of those new artists that you found out and scroll down to see other new recommendations. It'll show you "Fans Also Like" . You could find some similar artists. I will attach an image as an example.

2. Lastly, you could scroll down on your home screen and see if you find something similar to what you're looking for, else I'm really sorry there is no other way you could get back those unless Spotify does it for you.  

Hope you find this helpful. If you do, I'd be glad if you mark this as a solution.

Thanks and cheers!

Have a good day 💓
