Maybe I’m not their target market for this but I don’t know when I would ever choose to message via Spotify

the primary occasion i'd imaginen is to share and discuss music, playlists, artists etc

but i don't know why you'd want to have yet another place to get notifications from

Yeah but I don’t know why I wouldn’t just do it via the other forms of communication I already have. Spotify is definitely starting to atrophy, bad UI and not innovating on their core product anymore

yeah same, feel like it is just unnecessary with very little upside

Plus Daniel Elk isn’t a real elk.

doubt

Fact!

proof?

Just look at Spotify, a real elk would never do that.

hmm, need to inspect further 🕵️‍♂️
