What's an alternative to Spotify that doesn't play you the same fucking songs over and over? (self.asklemmy)

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.

The best thing would be several randomness sliders. One for randomness in bands, the other for randnomness of their songs, one for genres. Please tell me some music service has implemented something like that. I am dying over here.

I believe it's Android only, but Innertune quickly became the best way to listen to music. Check it out :)

I just about lost my mind earlier out of frustration for this. I love listening to rap/hip hop and the algorithm makes multiple mixes with the exact same songs every time.

I just typed in "underground" in search and found so much good shit. Not even all rap. There's all sorts of great music I have never heard!

I've been using Deezer and it's just as good as Spotify, you can also import your Spotify favorites list and playlists. Jumped over during the whole Neil Young/ Joe Rogan cancel
