Subject: Feature Request - Keyboard Shortcut for "Hide This Song"

[dragonslayexs]

Dear Spotify Team,

I'm writing to request a keyboard shortcut for the "Hide this song" feature (the minus button that appears next to songs).

Why this matters:

Your keyboard shortcuts have made Spotify incredibly efficient to use - I can navigate my library, control playback, and manage my liked songs all without touching my mouse. However, there's one common action that still requires manual clicking: hiding songs I don't want to hear again.

The current situation:

• Liking/unliking songs has a shortcut: Alt + Shift + B
• Adding to queue has a shortcut: Right Arrow
• But hiding songs requires: clicking the three-dot menu → selecting "Don't play this" OR clicking the small minus button

When listening to radio or discover features, I often want to quickly hide songs that don't match my taste. Having to interrupt my workflow to precisely click a small UI element breaks the otherwise seamless keyboard experience you've built.

Suggested implementation:

A simple keybind like Alt + Shift + H (for "Hide") or Alt + - (minus key, matching the UI icon) would fit perfectly with your existing shortcut patterns and make curating music far more enjoyable.

Benefits:

• Faster curation during listening sessions
• Better accessibility for users with mobility challenges
• Consistency with your existing keyboard-first design philosophy
• Happier power users who love your platform

Thank you for considering this request. Spotify's keyboard shortcuts are already excellent - this addition would make them complete.

Best regards,
