I used to use Spotify but got sick of their recommendations. Vastly different genre playlists would still get top100 songs recommended. Sabrina Carpenter in all my playlists.
I moved to Pandora, their recommendation engine is way less biased. Fewer features in the app, tho
FYI Pandora was playing ICE recruitment ads on their service last year.
Back when I was on spotify I listened to premade playlists very rarely since I pretty much always knew what I wanted to listen to and because I'm very picky. The "This is [x] playlists were pretty good though
