Remove suggested users in messages

Please remove the suggested accounts that pop up in messages. This is a safety issue for people who had blends with abusive exes, for example. If they must be there please suggest only accounts that users currently follow.

Absolutely agree - especially that it should NOT mirror the awful thing that facebook, instagram etc do of suggesting random people to follow/message. Honestly worst ever thing for my mental health (having to mete out a parallel social world in digital) - Spotify messaging should be minimal and totally avoid that sort of thing.

 

KEEP IT TO FOLLOWER LIST ONLY
