That’s the problem with most tech these days. They assume they know the best way to do something or know better than you. Its infuriating
It’s about minimizing the annoyance for the majority of users who will misspell some popular thing.
Also, I believe that showing actually interesting content is bad for the businesses because it might make the user stop to think and pursue something meaningful instead of continuing to use the product.
Spotify is a prime example of this. There are so many “features” I hate and that no one has asked for, yet shuffle doesn’t even work.
Everytime I start spotify in ny office after listening on my commute, it tries to start playing on my phone since that was playing in my car.
Or when I was still there, Reddit search. Absolutely useless and so fucking smarmy with that stupid doge.
What do you mean by “shuffle doesn’t even work”? Please qualify that statement.
they may be referring to how spotify’s shuffle isn’t a true “shuffle” in that it is biased to things you have listened to more, recently, etc
