Did your Spotify Wrapped confuse you too? Do they have "too much data" to make sense of - sensibly? 🟢 2 of my top 5 songs were songs I didn't like at all - Spotify would just push them in my playlist, & I would skip them each time. How did those songs make it to the top? 🟢 My Google clock's alarm tone is a song that's played from Spotify - so Spotify thought it was my favourite song because I "played it everyday". Genius. 🟢 This year they also showed you the monthly phases of genres you listened to the most. I didn't relate to that list at all. Same with the top 5 artists. It felt like watching someone else's wrapped. Spotify Wrapped turned from "Here's what your year sounded like" to "Here's the music we pushed on your playlists" Their data may be factually true. But I couldn't relate to it emotionally anymore. 💡 It also tells me about how my music listening habits have drastically changed from the MP3 days. Now I choose lesser for myself, & let their algorithm choose for me. So I'd like to thank Spotify for this year's wrapped - I learnt something about myself - that I need to choose the music I listen to more often! Were you satisfied with this year's Spotify Wrapped? #spotify #spotifywrapped #wrapped2024 #UXdesign #data #algorithm #design #industrialdesign
