It's very strange how these types of nice UX things seem to be lacking in big modern apps nowadays. I think we all know why, they aren't revenue drivers. But, surely this wouldn't be that hard for Spotify to do themselves.

Shout out to this project and all the others mentioned in this thread that are adding the niceties that seem to be missing.

Spotify is particularly atrocious when it comes to UI. Never have I seen an app go out of its way to make its UX worse as upgrades are released, it’s infuriating. I’d have been gone a long time ago if there were any serious competitor to switch to.
