[All Platforms] Customize Start Screen

This is not a new idea, but I haven't found any practical reply to it, so I think it needs to be repeated. I completely agree with Rennestein (screen capture below), we need to stop seeing irrelevant suggestions because it is annoying. Why can't it be possible to decide what we first see when we open Spotify on any device? (playlists, recently played, artists we're following, etc), and enjoy better our Spotify experience?
Please Spotify, let us have the home screen as we'd like. :)) Thank you!

Hey folks,

We appreciate you sharing your feedback on the Community and showing your support to this idea.
 
We're setting this idea to 'Not Right Now', as this isn't something we have any immediate plans to implement. If we do have any new info to share, rest assured we'll check back in here with a new status.
 
Update from the 23rd of Feb 2023:
 
A new feature was recently introduced in the mobile app which you may find interesting as it allows users to remove content recommendations from the subfeeds (Music and Podcasts & Shows) of their Home screen, thus expanding upon the current customization options and offering a improved, more personalized experience. You can find more info about it in the Status update here.
 
Thanks.

I can't believe I have to write this, but customers who PAY MONEY every month for an AD-FREE SERVICE should NEVER see "Sponsored Content" of any kind. Especially when it's irrelevant, tasteless "kids' music" (whatever that is) taking up a huge portion of their home screen. I've dealt with this for several months now and I've had enough. This culture of enshittification has driven me to purge all my subscriptions down to the absolute essentials, and Spotify WILL BE NEXT if they keep this **bleep** up.

Pouvoir supprimer un podcast de sa bibliothèque Spotify afin qu'il n'apparaisse plus, surtout en première page d'accueil de sa session de présentation. Et d'ôtant plus s'il n'a pas été librement choisi, mais par son conjoint......

My Question or Issue

All of my songs from the playlist were gone and empty, not just my personal playlist but also all the playlist like today's mix, artist's mix and many other, i tried clean reinstalling, restarting, logging in and out from my account and all of the solution i got from the internet but nothing works. The funny thing is my pc's playlist is just fine without any problem in the playlist, the playlist is still there, its just on my phone that had this problem, can you help?

To add for the record now my spotify cant even play any songs, either it was from artist's tab, mix's tab or any podcast, im so close to uninstalling spotify, because if i cant play any songs, why bother installing it in the first place

 

Thank you

I’m having the same issue I have no idea why he’s showing up I don’t even listen to podcasts like this at all

I keep getting completely irrelevant and horrible recommendations that my kids see-like no joke: "mom of 3 murdered. Find out who did it." I'm a mom of 3 so it's highly disturbing for my kids and myself. It's unbelievable that such extreme content is recommended with no prior playing or interest. I literally have like all kids songs and I allow explicit content just because occasionally there's songs I wanna listen to but they aren't bad at all. This needs to change

you can see all the things we listen to are extremely tame. So why are we getting murder podcasts suggested? At the very least, fix the algorithm. At best, let us deny this. There is no way for me to stop it. We are long time Premium members and we should not have to pay for garbage we have no interest in to show up on our screens, esp when kids use the account.

We want to have a voice! is frustrating!!! We want to say I DON'T LIKE THIS! I don't want to see it AGAIN!!!!!!!!

Why do we not have the ability to skip or hide podcasts that we don't want to see on our main page? I recently unfollowed a podcast and I am still suck seeing the person's face on my feed anytime they have a new episode come out. It's ridiculous that this hasn't been fixed by now. I see tons of people on this forum over the past 3-4 years asking for this to be fixed and yet here we are... wow.
