My “Liked Music” playlist has 630 songs.
Cool, but can we talk about how YouTube Music only shuffles the first twenty or so? I desperately need a way to export my playlist so I can pirate the music and properly shuffle it on an open source mp3 player.“Piracy is not a pricing issue. It’s a service issue.” – Gabe Newell
yt-dlp can download yt music playlists afaik
Yesss inject that 128kB into my veins.
Compression is cringe af tbh
i use a website that shuffles the playlist for me all at once, so i just go in the random shuffle order it gave me instead of using the actual shuffle button. it ensures every song get played at least once
Could you share the site information?
Thank you for the share. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a YouTube Music randomizer. Everything I find randomizes YouTube for browser viewing.
damn thats a shame. i looked it up in curiosity and one suggestion was to switch to apple music until google fixes that feature 🤣
“Oh, just aim at your other foot!”
Lidarr might have that option, it has it for Spotify at least, or just export it using the tool the other poster mentioned then use lidarr to find better quality versions
Used ‘seal’ and ‘retro music’ apps from f-droid, cool stuff
I have this problem when I shuffle my liked songs on Spotify. Someone suggested clearing the cache which has improved it slightly.
One playlist, “Liked Songs” gang supremacy.
i like to make sequels every year or so. i’m currently on “liked songs 4”. it gives me the chaos of a liked songs playlist, but with the comfort that only recently liked songs will play. (i will never unlike a song)
This is my strategy too, except I make new playlists every January and seperate the songs by year. So I have 2017, 2018, 2019, etc playlists of songs that came out that year. Then I go through the songs from that year and add the absolute bangers to an ultimate playlist. I also never unlike a song.
When I was first developing my music taste I did this too. I had “songs I like 2018 edition”, “songs I like 2019 edition” then discovered Spotify and everything morphed into a singular “liked songs” playlist :D
If there’s one thing I’d want AI to do is to organize my music library :)
Although I don’t unerstand why can’t Spotify just give me list of artists/genres/etc. that I listen to and allow me to play only specific ones. I could even do that on my freakin old iPod Nano and it’s year 2024 for god sake! But from what I see Spotify programmers are more busy with removing features than adding anything useful nowadays. I am also still mad that they have removed radio feature and they didn’t provide an alternative.
And while they’re at it, can it sort out the pics on my phone into “pics of dog” and “pics I took to show a client what the problem was then forgot to delete and now take up two thirds of my storage”?
Google photos is pretty good for searching photos like this, I don’t know about organizing
It’s incredible, though Apple is catching up.
Google Photos, perfect until they report you to the cops & close your account for photos you took of your son for your doctor. (NYT / Slashdot summary)
I’ve wondered about that possibility. Personally, I wouldn’t want sensitive photos to touch the internet PERIOD, even if I’m the one hosting. Incognito camera mode would be a cool feature. Hit a toggle, then all photos and videos are saved to a separate, secured directory not synced to any cloud service. Maybe things in there get deleted after 30 days
Sounds a little like Signal’s note to self!
Woah I already had signal for work and I didn’t even know that was a thing
Hey hun, check this out… Let me just get past these 32 pictures of the same door because my client is an idiot
Why should Spotify waste time on your pet feature request when they have dozens of working features still to be ruined.
Spotify should support tags. It would be so easy to have one giga playlist and just tag the songs accordingly to Genre, moods, memories, etc.
They recently did an update on mobile which basically treats playlists as tags, in that you press the + button and you can easily add and remove songs from multiple playlists with a single click. I’m probably not describing it that well, but it’s one of the best features they’ve added in years!
If they notice a reduction in subscribers theyll implement this.
I actually thought of developing an alternative frontend just for this one feature because the Spotify offline mode / listening to playlists / library music is just… bad, but I’m terrible at frontend and don’t have the time :/
they have something similar if you search “mix” you’ll find a bunch of genre and themed playlists with songs you already have liked and some new ones
likes more than a million songs on spotify, plays auto playlist on shuffle
look inside queue
the same 50 songs you’ve heard already
I mean the liked songs list let’s you separate by genre. When it knows what genre it is, and no Spotify, the Damned are not a pop group.
Wait what it lets you separate it by Genre? Need to check how to do that when I get back home
I can do on my list of liked songs and pick “punk rock” at the top and it’ll only show me the punk songs in my list
Where exactly? I don’t see this feature anywhere being even mentioned.
I just pick one of the genre tabs at the top and it’ll only show me the songs on my list that are that genre.
I don’t see any tabs both on my mobile device and desktop and I have similar amount of songs as you. Could this functionality be only limited to English language? I have my apps in Russian and Polish respectively.
1M songs is absurd. How many does Spotify even have?
About 70-80 mln
Yeah thats unfeasible as fuck, that would be listening to and liking over 800 songs a day for 10 years
Liking an album adds all the songs on the album to Liked Songs. Its annoying as fuck
for me it doesnt add any song to liked songs, just the album to liked albums. maybe its a desktop thing because on mobile i have to hit the 3 dots then hit the add all songs to playlist button
Used to like all songs if download an album. If unliked one song, undownloaded entire album.
Or you just like a bunch of huge playlists and it adds them all to the liked songs lol
I haven’t been using social media for 10+ years besides some on/off shitposting on hacker news. I’d love to find something for music management that’s not sucky and uber corpo like Spotify. I use Bandcamp for buying from niche artists and sound cloud for finding new labels, but sound cloud is too Spotifyish now. Deezer used to be nice before they started region restrictions.
I’m currently using Qobuz. The interface is a bit clunky and the catalog is smaller, but there are no podcasts, audiobooks, or social features.
My favorite ever streaming service was Mog. It was bought by Beats and ruined.
For those in the US that can’t use Quobuz (like myself), Tidal has social features, but you can turn them off.
I moved to Tidal from YT Music because of its awful bloat and love it. It’s simple and I’ve not found it to be lacking in anything. Some listings may be wrong sometimes, but they’re super responsive to feedback for fixing it.
Qobuz is available in the US (Qobuz Availability).
I tried Tidal for a while back when they only had the high-fi tier. It was nice but not worth the $20 a month IMO. It looks like they have cheaper tiers now.
Another plus is both services sound much better than Spotify.
Oh, I had literally checked it 3 weeks ago and it wasn’t. Cool!
All of my playlists are the ghostbusters theme song
I just have one giant playlist with all the music I like
I do as well. Unfortunately my taste is all over the place. If I play my liked songs on shuffle I get Country, Techno, Chanson, Drum and Bass, Metal, Tekkno, Pop, Hardbass, Grime, Breakcore, Hip-hop and then a four hour DJ set.
Aka the way it should be
Fuckin THANK YOU!
i went from marty robbins to dillinger escape plan once. boy did that shock my system
Perfect, if your playlist doesn’t give you severe whiplash every few minutes you’re not doing it right.
Yeah, if I’m not in the mood I just skip until I find a song that hits. I’m way too lazy to make playlists
Finally, someone who gets me! I’m the exact same way.
16k liked songs and counting
🫡
Playlist for moods/scene
Bedtime, Party Songs, Fuck Jams etc.

The real fuck jams are actual sex-themed albums.

for me it’s just a rating system
favourite, like, and those that need a specific mood but slap when it comes around
Assuming an average of 4 minutes per song, that is 7 years and 8 months of music. I wonder how much time the ads would add?
The best way to use spotify is to block the ads
You can do that? I don’t use Spotify so I didn’t know.
It’s not even on shuffle, either, so he’s just listening straight through.
It’s a journey through time, when you do it that way.
Yes I do! I have a house classics, progressive classics, progressive house(of the past year), uplifting trance, trance and so on. But my liked songs has a bit of everything and many other things. ps: I need a trance classics list.
