Yeah, I actually found a lot of great music from Spotify's suggestions that I wouldn't have listened to otherwise. However, their suggestions for me are now stuck in such a specific (and frankly kind of weird) musical niche that they've become useless.

A big part of it is probably because I try to only use Spotify for discovering new music. Anything that I know I actually like gets added to my local music library instead and is never played through Spotify.

edit: Is there a way to tell Spotify to forget what it thinks it knows about my taste in music? I think I'd prefer starting over from scratch instead of trying to feed it more information about what I already listen to.

Contact the support desk. They helped me migrate to a new account once and migrated everything in my library over. Idk about the recommendation engine bc that wasn't a concern of mine but I had a human on the other side helping me figure out my situation through email. This was 2019ish
