[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.

On the Home Screen-- ALL--  your 8 most recent searches/listens populate listed in the rectangle icons. My dilemma: If i played a song from an artist that I did not enjoy or even played it on accident, but it pops up on my home screen as a large icon, I want to remove it because I only want to see the ones that matter to me. It is my Spotify after all. Currently, the only options that pop up when you right click on said icons are-- Follow, Don't Play This Artist, Go To Artist Radio, Report, and Share. None of these give the option to remove the icon from view. I think that needs to be, just like in Instagram where you can Hide an ad or a post that you don't want to see and then it will shortly be replaced. I think this would be a community friendly solution.

please keep the home page consistent when I open the app! I don't listen to podcasts or watch music videos, so it's pretty frustrating when I open the app expecting my "jump back in" and "recents" tiles, but instead have to scroll through a whole feed of recommended playlists + podcasts I'm not interested in. not sure why the random change, would appreciate consistency!

At the top where it puts our recents, it would be great to have a small section at the top of the Home page that we can customize into our favorite artists or podcasts, or albums. 
Maybe 4 widgets at the very top that we can customize.

I wish the app would not reload the content a few seconds after opening the app right when I am trying to click on a tile like „Release Radar“ and the wrong one gets opened caused by the reload. Please show empty placeholders instead - you know, those slightly animated boxes commonly used to indicate content which is being loaded.

 

Happens to me very often on iOS and also using CarPlay.

Amazing point!  It is an extremely annoying experience.  It adds to the already increasingly laggy app and poor UX.

Escutava alguns programas e parei, pois não faz mais sentido com o meu momento atual, porém toda vez que estou escutando um outro programa no final do episódio, inicia um episódio do programa antigo.
E quando vou na página inicial ele aparece nos meus programas, mesmo eu não seguindo, mesmo eu não escutando.
Gostaria que tivesse uma opção de não exibir ou que não tenho interesse, para que não fosse mais exibido na minha página inicial.
