Podcast episode not displaying full date

Podcast episode not displaying full date

In the past, Spotify used to show the full release date of a podcast episode (as an example, 1 Oct 2020), but now, it only displays the month and year for any episode that wasn't released during the current year (using this example, it only shows Oct 2020). I just don't understand why this change was made. It's completely unnecessary and barely saves any space even if you wanted to simplify the episode information, and makes it more annoying if I want to reference the release date of an episode. Any chance that this will be changed back to its previous state?

Hi @tomadashi,

 

Thanks for posting on the Community. 

 

At the moment, it's only possible to see the month and year of a Podcast episode released before 2022 (or current year).

AndresM, your link to other topic is not accessible for others (or at least for me). After clicking there is only warning page: "Access Denied. You do not have sufficient privileges for this resource or its parent to perform this action."

Ad problem with date: Why would Spotify shorten the date? It's only irritating and it doesn't do anything for better accessibility or readability.
