Do you mean daily mix playlists? From the first 20 songs 17 are something which I added to my library, or listen them regularly. The rest of the 3 songs? 2 of them are from artists whom I listen to regularly. 1 clearly new song.

I have very similar rate with “daytime mix”.

So which one do you mean? “Discover weekly” and ”release radar” have new songs, yeah. But “radios” are like the previously mentioned playlists.

No none of those. Is a special dynamic playlist, starting to wonder if its not a standard playlist everyone has..

sort of like the DJ mix without the annoying voice. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1EP6YuccBxUcC1

It has a very similar rate for me, a little bit better. Btw, there are new songs in every playlist. The problem isn’t that there is none, the problem is priorities, especially with radios.
If I look at mine today (00s indie britpop Thursday early morning) I know pretty much every song and artist on it
if you stick with it the cycle will introduce new stuff. I have been using for months and still get new music (with occasional repeats)
I can’t say I have had the same experience, I don’t mind it though.

I’ve had Spotify since it launched in the U.K. so it has plenty of my listening history!

their algorithm is working then
