BRING BACK THE RELEASE DATE ON THE DESKTOP APP PLEASE!

[Indie30]

Given it continues to be available on the mobile app, the removal of the release date on the desktop app continues to baffle me. If somebody could tell me why this has happened and how this makes the spotify experience better I'd very much appreciate it. I know it doesn't seem a big deal to some but to new music curators its simply essential. It makes curating my new music playlists so much harder and I am at a loss without it. It's even harder to take given it remains on mobile albeit tucked away in the view album tab. Please restore it to the desktop where I would imagine most people curate their playlists and make this new music tragic happy again.

Agreed, I've been making New Music playlists since 2017 and now with the new update it's going to be so much harder to do that... The Release Date is still visible in the mobile app, but it's not convenient at all to try to do this through the mobile app.

If you hover over the release date in the new 2021 desktop app update or the web player for several seconds, the full release date will show in a popup tooltip. They should just show the full release date by default. The tooltip is slow and small.

This works, thank you so much!!
