Please remove default to smart shuffle for playlists

[KeithHarrisonJr]

I’ve made hundreds of Spotify playlists over the years and today out of the blue they ALL have been automatically switched to shuffle!
This is so ridiculous that it seems like some terrible corporate idea of an April Fool’s joke — or like when iTunes surprised everyone by “giving” them that U2 album without asking.
Look, I understand that some people may want want to enable shuffle on some playlists, BUT MANY OF US SET UP OUR PLAYLISTS TO PLAY SONGS IN A SPECIFIC ORDER. For many if not most of us, that is literally the entire point of making a playlist.

This is a music app — did no one in the company realize how unbelievably wrongheaded this idea was? There are books and movies and magazine articles about music heads making mixtapes and playlists. The point is to have the songs play in a specific order — not at random!

PLEASE remove this automatic default switch to shuffle, as soon as possible.

Thanks!
