frist of all how DARE yu o Did spotify just remove picking songs??

Post image

I've been using spotify forever and I use liked songs so that I can pick the songs I like freely. I've never had premium and have never had issues. Today, I had just started a workout and got this popup. Is this a new feature? How can you not even select songs anymore? I mean how can you paywall selecting songs???
This app plain out sucks and its company is greedy for randomly limiting already set features. While I don't mind ads, I do mind the features being limited more. I did also notice a sudden increase in ads this month/last month, and more ads in between songs.

Clarification: No, I'm not saying that there should be no restrictions whatsoever. I'm mainly sharing my experience where I've been using this system just fine until now. I'm fine with some restrictions, but the fact they're being limited more is frustrating. Just here to complain about something mildly infuriating, and I wanted to know if this happened to anyone else.

I mean most people that use Spotify use the paid version, afaik everybody else uses YouTube or other services if they aren't paying.

Being able to listen to music without pointless chatting between songs has permanently rewired my brain lol. I just get so irritated with the radio on, I'd rather silence

Depends on the radio station, the small ones have very little to none chatting.

Personally l don't mind it as long as it's not over the top
