I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a “sponsored recommendation”.

Why am I seeing ads if I’m already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

    Spotify pissed me off with some billing or API thing (don’t even remember the details) back in 2012, so I cancelled and never looked back. From what I’m reading now and then things is just getting worse and worse - and I have no clue why people (especially paying ones) are sticking with it.

      My whole family uses it, and it’s fine (the paid plan). People just want to hate on Spotify in this thread. More power to them, but it’s nowhere near as horrible as they describe. I get all my music and podcasts from there.
