I didn't want U2's shitty song in my iTunes library then, and I don't want to have Joe Rogan's cretinous, loud, imbecilic, drool-spew on my spotify homepage.The political Left’s attempts to cancel Joe Rogan’s podcast on Spotify appear to have backfired as the company’s new quarterly earnings report revealed that the platform exceeded its expectations for new paying subscribers. It feels like the great U2 spamblast that happened with iTunes years ago. The problem is that Spotify is forcing unwanted content onto paying users by having this default behavior. That being said, I shouldn't have had to do this, and the greater issue/question remains - why is this the default behavior of the 'improved user experience'? I agree with elezium that it is an issue I phrased it as a question initially as a way of phrasing it in a less accusatory and confrontational manner. The process is nicely documented and stickied on reddit's /r/spotify. Also seems to have eliminated Joe's presence from my iOS device, strangely enough. So editing my prefs file to force the desktop app into classic mode has gotten rid of the ever-present 'Best of The Joe Rogan Experience'. Is this simply something that I have to 'put up and shut up' about, because of the massive signing deal between Rogan and Spotify?

Since I have no interest in JRE, and nothing in my listening habits should indicate to Spotify's algos that I would have any interest in JRE, it feels like an advertisement - pushing unwanted content onto a paying subscriber. How can I remove this? It's actually really irritating, not only because of the content, but also because of the fact that I pay for a premium account for the privilege of not being bombarded with advertisements while I'm listening to the content that I do enjoy. There's nothing similar in my listening habits that would indicate that the JRE podcast is something that would appeal to my listening interests, and yet there it sits. I'm never going to listen to it for a huge range of reasons. It doesn't matter what device I log in with, or if I'm using the web player or the app, every time, right at the top of my home is the Joe Rogan Experience. The Joe Rogan Experience…how do I remove it from m.
