Every generation: "I know all the generations before me have whined about the new music the kids are listening to, and I always correctly identified their whining as pathetic old-person behavior. But MY generation is actually right. The new music objectively sucks."
It'll happen to the current batch of kids, too.
Nobody will ever rise above it. It's just a basic part of human nature. You might as well ask people to stop breathing.
That's kinda missing the point. I am aware my taste in music is not the same as the new generation, still I hear and discover new music that's actually interesting.
On the other hand, Spotify misses the opportunity to actually offer you discovering new genres, artists, songs that you may like. That's OPs point, and I agree.
The last time a streaming service actually made me discover new music was 2015 Deezer.
Idk, I think Spotify's Discover Weekly is pretty good at finding music from less popular bands but YMMV.
My experience is completely shitty. I'm in a Spanish speaking country, and all it recommends me is music from Spanish speakers, and oldies...
