How to get rid of Russian music?

[aliiimov]

I'm from Ukraine. I stopped listening to Russian music altogether. I block any Russian tracks in every playlist of the week so that they don’t come across to me at all. But every week I see the same thing. How can this be??

Also, I can't understand why Russian music is generally offered for listening in Ukraine. And you know perfectly well that for listening to this music, taxes are paid to the treasury of the country of registration. Then this money goes to the military collection. There is a very simple chain of support for this war.

I understand that you are trying to avoid listening to Russian music at the moment. Unfortunately, sometimes some tracks may appear in Spotify music suggestions, but you can always lock those tracks and create a custom playlist with your favorite songs. You can also disable recommendations in your listening history and even use the "Don't show me this again" feature in the app to prevent these tracks from being served to you. I hope this helps: One way that can help prevent suggested songs from playing is: 1- Open your Spotify app and click on the image. 2- Then click on play. 3- Then scroll down and disable the autoplay icon. This initiative will stop the playback of the suggested songs.

But... your suggestion is to avoid Spotify's killer feature - algorithms.
It's not a solution, and you know that.

1. Make custom playlists

2. Lock recommendations
What you have after that - iTunes, or whatever...
