    I mean, I use a foss YouTube music app, yarr, but even there if you play an album, or a specific song from the album, it queues up the album. If you play a song out of search it queues up related songs. Spotify is similar. Playlists are also a thing. I don’t use it for ethics reasons but sounds like your past issues were user error.

      new user, picks “Queen Greatest Hits”, plays, gets KISS and other rock bands.

      it’s not a user problem, it’s a UX problem.

        Spotify shuffles “similar artists” in if you pick the playlists called BAND_NAME Radio.

        I dunno how it operates in free mode, because I don’t hate myself enough to hear their crappy ads.
