      I can’t think of another company that has an unbroken 17-year track record of making their client worse with every single update and every single new feature.

      League of Legends is pretty close. It released in 2009, 3 years after Spotify. Its client has been getting worse every update for a very long time. Though they recently forced Vanguard into the game so I haven’t played it since I uninstalled right before that update.

      It’s weird how many people look at me like I’m stupid when they find out I don’t pay for Spotify and I have my own music…

      Thanks for shraing but I use RiMusic work with YouTube Music API and I think its shuffler is not good.

      Sadly can’t be used on Liked playlist which is the one I shuffle more than anything. Guess I can make copies of it and shuffle.

      How well does this 3rd party shuffler work? I’m always a bit leery about giving out access to my Spotify playlists, but if I can get better shuffles that do not somehow repeat the same tracks I heard yesterday (out of thousands), I may try it.

    Call me old fashioned, but I still download my music.

    I play them through Sony’s music App (I’m sure there are better ones out there), but the shuffle feature takes all the songs you want to play and creates a randomised playlist out of them - no song repeats!

    Also, it means I get to listen to my music in complete lossless form without ads or the potential to lose connection to a service.

    What helps a little bit is to turn off automix in the settings.

    I think what it does is playing songs that blend/crossover into eachother smoothly. So on the same beat or tone or something like that.

    It’s so bad that 3 of my most played songs are not my most favorite songs, solely because the shuffler keep shoving it to my throat over and over again. I mean, I like those songs, but not THAT much.
