[Other] Exact release date across all platforms

Spotify has exact release date information for albums - it can be viewed in the mobile app (at least under iOS, v8.5.41). Using the official desktop app, however (macOS, v1.1.24.91.g4ca6d5eb) you only get the year. Why the disparity? I would have tho...

Zoom options to change all elements, including text size, spacing, etc. It would be nice to have some zoom options to change the text size in the desktop application. It could be separate options for the sidebar and the main screen.
