A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

When I had Spotify I always heard the same stuff and when I invariably got tired of that same stuff and wanted to expand my tastes, I had a hard time finding stuff I liked.
For all the hate YouTube gets I much prefer it now, not a day goes by where something new (that I actually like enough not to skip) appears in my supermix. What isn't good about the algorithm is if someone plays something on your account that isn't what you like, the next week will be constant additions of whatever genre your wife decided to play..
Yeah I am hoping we can get a guest mode or party mode or something that allows to play stuff of all types that maybe you play for somebody else or because is a party and friends can suggest stuff or similar but that doesn't mean you will like to listen it usually.
YouTube music seems to hit a perfect blend of stuff you know and stuff you don't.
