Spotify mobile has weird issues for me. I'll be playing podcast A, then when I switch to podcast B, the display on the bottom gets stuck on A. I can still use buttons, but unless I restart the app, it will always keep podcast A on display. It'll even keep the timestamp I was on for A, even if I start a new podcast fresh. Mildly annoying...
In terms of recs, it does ok. There are weeks when every discover Weekly track is bizarre ambient music or very quiet music, like I'm supposed to be a spa owner. Then sometimes it has delivered great tracks. But as a musician, it's very rare for me to find new gems, I've heard of so many via friends, class, YT, etc.
Overall, spotify is great, but the app and algorithm could use improvement.
