Spotifys UX has always been terrible. We all got used to having crappy software. It’s too convenient that’s AI also makes crappy vibecode without supervision. No one will notice anything.
There was a time back in maybe… 2009(?) when the UI was great. It made sense, you could do everything you could possibly want very easily. Then they broke everything I think around 2012 and completely revamped the UI, and it’s never been good ever since.
Podcast. Filter out episodes I’ve already listened to. Turn around. Filter out episodes I’ve already listened to. Put the app in the background. Filter out episodes that I’ve already listened to. Finish an episode. Filter out episodes I’ve already listened to. The year is 2026. Filter out episodes that I’ve already listened to.
Tell me, why is that not persistent?

2009 would be back when it was a native application, rather than just a web browser
I too remember when there were actual markets with actual products who actually competed with one another
