[All Platforms] "Don't Like Button" should be added to all sections

[zenDroid]

Hello everyone,

I am not sure why it keeps changing between updates, although in the past Daily Mixes have the Like & Dislike button. But this time around it has been completely removed and is only available Under Your Weekly Discovery.

It would be nice if the "Don't Like Button" was added everywhere, from Weekly Discovery, Daily Mixes, even when searching specific songs, albums, genres etc. to better filter our music preferences.

Also I find on Android on the drop down menu the Don't like button rarely ever works and have to enter the app directly. Like always works perfectly fine.

I would appreciate it if this could be considered.

Thank you

I think they just don't care what we think!
So yes I guess you are right, they are no better than FB.
U-Tube music is pretty good though!

Why was the dislike button removed in the latest update? Now you have to blindly remove a song from the Discover Weekly before listening to it. It does not make sense if you don't know the artist and/or song. It's called Discover, right? And the songs I removed from an artist radio keep on coming back. This is ridiculous. Spotify is supposed to have smart algos to tailor the listener taste, but this is really spoiling it. Please bring back the dislike button and even better, add it everywhere. Thanks for "listening".

Any update on this? It is very frustrating to use daily mixes without dislike buttons

I often use my iPad, via mobile hotspot, as a “remote control” for the Spotify app running on my iPhone (which has the data plan). This allows me to switch tracks, like music, etc. while working on the iPad without having to use my limited mobile hotspot data.

However, “hiding” a track from a list (daily mix, radio etc.) does not transfer from the iPad’s playlist to the current playlist running on the iPhone. Therefore, ”hide song” also does not force a skip to the next track.  Similarly, hidden tracks on the iPhone are not displayed as such on the iPad. This makes curating lists of music using multiple devices frustrating at best. It’s important to note that “liking” a track does in fact immediately sync to the other devices and therefore hiding a track should also be possible. Thank You.

Add on: Also, please fix “hide song” so that it syncs to all playlists throughout my account.  If I don’t want to hear a song, I NEVER want to hear it again.  This alone makes listening to multiple Daily Mixes unbearably annoying at times.

Why was the dislike button removed from the release radar? Now it is a useless playlist with 80% music I don’t like from artists I don’t follow. I used to look forward to it every Friday but now I don’t even bother to listen to it. I don’t understand how my discover weekly is 99% catered to my listening tastes but the release radar misses the mark by a looonnggg way. Sort it out for your paying customers Spotify. You are basically doing what Facebook and Instagram does by removing useful features like sorting a news feed by most recent and instead forcing your own algorithms onto people with what you think they want. People should be free To decide what music they want to listen to especially when the are paying a subscription fee every month for the pleasure.

This used to be a feature though. When it was “dislike” song instead of “hide” it greyed it out on all devices. Now it no longer does. However, if I hide on computer it’s not greyed on iPhone, but I still can’t play it. Making it even more disorganized. Can you just restore syncing hidden/dislikes songs across all devices linked to that account?  Every other feature syncs.

Fix the “hide song” sync functionality at least for premium subscribers. It is annoying and certainly can not be characterized as a new feature.
