[Desktop][Playlists] Modify "Popular by listeners"

[paulkirschner]

About a year ago I listened to a podcast called "Sleep with me" and now for more than a year, I continue to see at the top of Spotify "Popular for listeners to: Sleep with me". How do I get rid of this?

Original in Dutch

Ik heb een jaar geleden geluisterd naar wat podcasts van "Sleep with me" en nu krijg ik steeds te zien "Populair bij luisteraars van: Sleep with me". Hoe krijg ik deze aanbeveling weg?

Hi @paulkirschner,

thanks for reaching out !

Unfortunately, it isn't possible to modify any section/content on your the Home screen.

However, the home page changes from time to time according to your music/podcast history.

As long as you keep listening to your current favorite podcasts, your page will eventually will get updated.

In addition, I'd like to point out this idea about being able to customize the Home screen.

Please make sure to add your +VOTE and subscribe for further updates.

Let me know if you have any further questions 🙂

Though I haven't listened to the podcast for more than a year, it's still there. And I no longer listen to podcasts on Spotify so it apparently will never be removed!

Hi @paulkirschner,

The podcast recommendation section is a built widget on the Spotify app and is presented to all users as part of their home page.

Your app's home page recommendations are based on your listening history both for music and podcasts.

Based on the above and as you stopped listening to podcasts, the recommendations are the same.

However, the more you listen to content on your app the more accurate it'll be to your personal taste and will get changed on a regular basis.

I'll make sure to transfer your feedback to the right team.

Let me know if you have any further questions 🙂
