So Spotify recently changed from a green heart and a block song button to and + and a - for liking and disliking. What is your opinion?

My personal preference would be to bring back the green heart and make a deep red broken heart.

And I know spotify is proprietary yada yada I don't care for music streaming. So pls don't let it be a part of the discussion.

To reference this is an old screenshot I found on the internet.

You get used to it, it has been like this on iOS for quite a while already.

I'm a person that likes it when the UI is switched up a bit every now and then to bring some fresh air to an old app.

This case I absolutely don't care.

I used to agree wholeheartedly, but I'm the last 3-5 years I've come to absolutely dread UI changes. I can't think of a website or service that I use that's gotten better. They (reddit, youtube, facebook or whatever) take away functions and make it easier to herd users the way they want them.

I prefer it this way. I like the function of the double tap open up a prompt to choose a playlist, feels more convenient. As for the heart vs plus button, i like the symbology of the plus button more, but that's personal preference.

A flaw that I heard many times in this teard is that it looks like a volume button

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I can see that. Not something that crossed my mind first time I saw it, but makes senses

Good thing I don't use Spotify.

Get your downvotes ready.

Same opinion for all of Spotify: it's shit

Eh, neither of your screenshot shows what you are talking about, tbh.

I don't use Spotify anymore, because paying means less quality for me. But at first I thought this was a joke, because I couldn't find the dislike (not that it ever did sth in Spotify)
