Couldn't agree more. I hate Spotify and its UI. Like many modern big apps, user experience seems to be an afterthought.
Recently it started showing me some related playlists that makes no sense - I now have to ignore a big portion of the UI because it's useless, feels like I'm using an app with ads.
But it's hard to go back to downloading albums after trying the convenience of a service like that.
I tried Google Music, but somehow it was even worse than Spotify, but that's about of what I expect of Google these days.
I'll be trying Deezer, Tidal and Apple Music soon.
