[Playlists] Public Playlist Folders

Hi!  

I've seen this idea being thrown around before but often closed/inactive, so I thought I'd give it another go. (see here)

The folders feature has been around for quite some time now, and I love the idea of being able to organise my playlists as I do have more than 80 saved (lol).

 

However, having the folders public to followers would:

1. improve the look of user profiles' playlist tab 

  • De-clutter the playlist tabs by being able to group/organise them

2. help followers find playlists better and easier

  • allows users to make more public playlists as it no longer gets lost in the public playlists tab
  • allows users to highlight their current/most popular playlists

 

This often gets turned down due to lack of likes/votes, so make sure you show so we can finally grab Spotify team's attention and make folders go public! 🙂

 

Thanks:D

It would be great if custom folders with playlists, albums etc could be shared through a link an added to the profile. Aside from it becoming easier to share music, it would also mean that the folders could become shortcuts in the homescreen, as well as other features that require a link.

So spotify acknowledged that this was a popular idea 3.5 years ago, and they've done literally nothing about it? awesome! 

 

i don't know anything about programming, but something tells me it would be Not That Hard for one of the world's biggest music companies to make it possible to make a folder public. i made a collection of 25 playlists that i want to share, and it would be so cool to just share 1 link instead of flooding my group chat with 25 fricking links lol

Making folders is something anyone like me has to do in order to simplify my search for the music I like and the playlists I create and follow. Please allow these folders to be public so that it doesn’t look to the average user/viewer that our profiles have nothing out together.

 

Most recently I created a folder for a community of D&D’ers. 38 playlists in total designed to be easy to use, but if I can’t share the folder it’s kind of pointless. At lease give us the choice to display folders publicly or not like we have the choice on playlists.

We should also be able to drag someone else's folder to our profile, make it easier to do folder and playlist transfer between profiles.

I want to be able to put my folders on my public profile just like playlists. I love making folders with monthly playlists, and it would be great if I could display that on my profile.

Hello! I love the folders feature but I would love if I could add them to my public profile too. I was hoping to share a folder filled with some playlists to make things easier but unfortunately it is not a feature yet. Even if it is not added to public profile, having a shareable link for a folder would be amazing!!
