[Desktop] Full Discography Reinstatement

Submitted by on ‎2021-03-30 05:00 PM
Status: Under Consideration

The full chronological artist discography, with all tracks listed out, has been removed from artist pages. Please add this back, as it was the most efficient way to explore an Artist's discography. Very simple.

 

Spotify seems to be attempting to bury this issue by closing attempts to bring it up and referring to other versions of this question that have also been closed. This is a new issue for users that are experiencing this change for the first time.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out about this.


We'll mark this Idea as "Under Consideration" as we discuss ways in the team to bring this use-case back to Desktop, and perhaps to web for the first time.

 

You can currently play through the entire discography (with shuffle on or off) by using the large play button on the artist page, but we appreciate that starting this from a specific track was something many of you were keen on.

 

You can get more info about this here. You can also take a peek at the newsroom announcement for the new desktop app.

 

You can also Subscribe via the 3-dot menu and keep an eye on this thread for updates.

 

Cheers!

I think this can be closed, no? Because Discography is back in the Desktop App!

bzero: Thank you, I just checked state of new superrior unified piece of shapp after like 18 months... Fine it's there and it's well hidden. Yet compared to pre-unification desktop client this whole thing is sub-optimal at the best. This is not UX suitable for dektop. Maybe for phones, but the desktop comfort is gone.

Hey look. Another idea asking to roll back a change that Spotify doesn't have a problem with because it's not about the new UI.

 

God, Spotify's hypocrisy knows no bounds apparently. There are like a dozen or more Ideas asking for this new trash home page UI to be removed—all of which were closed because apparently it's a rule that "Requests for complete roll-backs are not allowed." (Examples: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) And yet they don't seem to have any problem with this idea asking for a feature that was removed to be restored. If that's not a "complete roll-back" I don't know what is.

 

Why don't you just come clean and flat out say that you just aren't going to get rid of the new UI no matter how many people hate it?
