My Question or Issue
I think for the past month Spotify search functionality has been providing me completely unrelated results. All of these search results seem to be local music in my country so I am guessing Spotify has mis-tuned the bias for where the search results come from. I don't want to see any local music unless I am searching for it. Right now whatever I search, completely unrelated local music is added to the list of results. I really hope that this is not how it is meant to be because Spotify is really difficult to use in this way and I am not planning to keep my music listening experience uncomfortable. In fact I outright hate local music and I don't want to be forced to browse through it. If this bias keeps up I might aswell opt for a platform that doesn't force these artists on me. There is no way to "hide this artist in results" either.
Why not just show "no results found" instead of showing completely unrelated results as if something was found. It's just wasting my time having to look through this list.
As a sidenote, I also notice that music which I have only played at most one or two times long time ago is often added to blend playlists instead of music that I listen to way more frequently and more recently. Again local music is the most common music that Spotify claims me to frequently listen to when I've maybe only listened to them at most twice.
Also noone else is using my account. All of the signed in devices are my own personal and nobody else has access to them.
