WE NEED PURE SHUFFLE!

As many would have noticed, shuffle mode is not 100% random, as it depends on the popularity of the song, your last listen.

But I believe shuffle mode should be fully random, and then make a new setting called "enhanced shuffle" with those variables.

I absolutely love this app, but the one thing that's keeping it from being my favorite streaming service is this shuffle feature that only plays popular, and replayed songs. it infuriates me that the algorithm doesn't purely represent my/our music, and I desire to just turn off the app when songs constantly repeat.

So my assumption is that music also gets pushed to listeners. And that this is what we are all experiencing. And that this is part of how spotify also creates part of their financial business. My assumption is that it might be a business decision rather than a technical decision not to implement this idea. 🤔

Such a super-biased algorithm for popular songs. I have nearly all my friends complaining and switching to a different music app

Even just something that you can select to play the least played music from your playlists would be good. I love to listen to a wide range of music but the shuffle algorithms just keep pushing a really narrow selection of tracks.
