Weird Spotify sorting update

[GojiraNeptune]

So, recently, I've been going through some artists I follow from bottom to top to check out music, always based on when they were uploaded. But recently over the past few days I've noticed some things have been out of place. That's when I figured out that Spotify is pushing albums to the top of an artist's discography, regardless of the date it was uploaded. Is there any way to go back to when they were actually uploaded?

Hi @GojiraNeptune,

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community, and welcome!

I agree that it would be nice for Spotify to change the way how artists’ discographies appear when “All” is selected, back to the old organizational layout from before this recent update (album, EPs, and singles interspersed together, with all the releases sorted purely by release date).

There’s currently a Live Idea in the Idea Exchange for this request, and if it’s something you’re interested in, I’d recommend adding your +VOTE to the idea. The more votes an idea gets, the likelier it is that Spotify will implement it, and you can read more about how feedback on ideas reaches Spotify here.

Feel free to also Subscribe to the idea by clicking the three dots next to its title; that way, you can be sure to be informed of any relevant updates.

Let me know if you have any other questions, and have a good day!

Hey folks,

This is now fixed in the desktop app and web player. Artist discography will now show in chronological order again.

After reporting this and having it looked into, it was determined that this is not an expected change and a fix was made.

Thanks for coming to the Community to post your feedback.
