I am in an intense love-hate relationship with Spotify. It makes good mixes for me, I have found a lot of great bands that way. BUT IT KEEPS REGURGITATING THE SAME SONGS IN THERE. I know about Song Radios and Artist Radios, so please don’t recommend those. Smart Shuttle doesn’t cut it, either....
I have been using https://spotifyshuffler.com/. This allows you to create a shuffled version of your playlist, then you play through that version once with Spotify’s shuffling disabled.
The idea is that you don’t rely on Spotify shuffle at all. A separate app reads your playlist, shuffles it once, and puts that shuffled version into your library. Now you can play this new version with the in-Spotify shuffle disabled. Once you’ve heard all the songs, just rinse and repeat.
I don’t know why in 2023 we still can’t debounce notifications. It should be simple to say if I get 3 messages in the same conversation in 120 seconds, silence the conversation for an hour.
I’m in group chats that often devolve into 2-3 talking about something between themselves. While I’m busy with other things I’m not interested in being distracted every single time something is said because I think the notification might be something that requires attention. Once I have some free time I may be interested in going back to see what was said, but if I know they’re going off and I don’t want to hear about it at the moment I’d like the conversation to automatically mute for a short period of time.
The assumption is that by that point I am aware of the messages and have chosen to ignore them for the time being. There is no need to notify me because I’ve already been notified
What's an alternative to Spotify that doesn't play you the same fucking songs over and over?
