Return expanded queue view (not only sidebar) for desktop as it was before and now on web

[Eternal_]

As mentioned in https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Mac/Cannot-expand-queue-section-on-Mac-desktop-application/... it would be great to return old and pretty standard view for queue (aka playing now). As having it very limited on sidebar is against existing UX

Please give us the old queue back in the main window. I can't believe how bad of a change this is. This is such bad usability and pointless. What is it adding or improving? All I can see is a small undetailed list of song titles and artists, on the side of the window, with the main window having something completely irrelevant in it. Why?

This is yet another pointless change to make Spotify worse. It's the 20th time now? Spotify is barely usable now. The queue shown in the main window was perfect.

I don't understand why Spotify consistently removes things that worked well and adds things that make the software harder and more annoying to use. This is why I stopped giving you money and I never will pay for premium again.

Right now Spotify is the WORST software I have used in the last 30 years. I have such a long list of grievances and continual annoyances with it.

That little sliver of the now playing queue, you know. The most important and relevant info? Put that back in the middle where you can see it!

Magic UI design! Don't even have to code it up, just revert your crp code back to when that's where it logically was!

Your UI team shoudl be beaten with soggy trouts, they're terrible!

All the info for getting the center queue back through Spicetify still works, just use an older version of Spotify and disable auto updates.

It is crazy that these steps are needed though.

I'm actually having issues with the old version since yesterday. I can not
search anymore. I get "Something went wrong" with a button Reload Page, and
that's it. I think they sabotaged it. 😞

This truly sucks. Busy work UX changes are a bane on the world. Either move the queue back to the middle or create its own column, as you did for the experimental features. I want "now playing" and "queue" to be visible at the same time.

With my older version, I am now unable to search for artists. It just says Something went wrong. Looks like they have moved on to the next tactic to force people to use the right side queue. I am baffled at how hard they are pushing this terrible idea for a service I pay for.

It used to be that after selecting a new song from ur playlist, the entire queue would change as well, but recently there must’ve been an update were they took that option away. Now you have to manually press the shuffle button every time, and ur old queue carries over when you change songs. this is extremely annoying and frustrating. I thought I was going crazy when it happened for the first time. Please go back to the old queue!!
