@SpotifyCares But it's been great for years. This is objectively worse as a listening experience. It's neither a better service or deal and is immensely frustrating. By all means offer videos, but forcing them on the user - by default - in a platform that's always been about audio is bonkers.

@SpotifyCares please give me some way to disable videos. I stream via the TV app and it keeps resetting to play videos by default; I absolutely do not want this. Completely ruins the flow of an album. It's driving me mental.

@SpotifyCares Why? I'm listening to an album, why do I want to see a video? It's horribly frustrating - and the sound quality is never as good as the song itself, nevermind the fact the videos usually have a load of talking or extra junk in them. Why is this the default choice?

@yesiamben Okay! When you start a new album or playlist, the default behavior is often to display the music video if one exists for a song, even if you prefer audio-only playback.

@SpotifyCares So this is expected behaviour? Every time I start a new album through the TV app I have to explicitly tell it not to play videos?

Hi there. Currently, Spotify doesn't have an option to turn off videos in the settings. A similar idea has already been suggested here: bit.ly/3GsG3jh - feel free to add your vote to show your support. If you think your idea should be considered separate, feel free to submit it again highlighting how your idea is distinct from the existing one. Hope this helps. If anything else comes up, don't hesitate to ask.

@levelsio On their days off, my dad's neighbours used to ring a bell about 4pm. If you could hear the bell, you were welcome to pop over for a beer or cocktail. Delightful.

This is kinda genius

@levelsio In Paris during the 19th century people had slots when you could just show up to their home unannounced for coffees, even for dinner when you were rich. Slots were written on their business cards.

@madebygoogle Please stop automatically making my Pixel use Gemini over assistant. I'll happily switch when Gemini can actually replace assistant, but right now it can't even do the basic Home routine stuff - and even the bits it tries to do requires me to unlock my phone.

@talktotippers Actual LOL. When I was laughing, someone said to me "your laugh is so good, will you be the voice of a Disney meerkat?" Thank you Tippers 🙏🏻

@Myprotein Your email says free next day delivery with a £40 spend, but you've upped this to £45 on the site... Kind of annoying - can you honour the email?!

@DHLParcelUK - I've been in all morning and there's a concierge. Didn't try very hard, did you?

@brooklynvegan hey guys - difficult/janky scrolling on your new website on Android/Chrome. I think it's the cookie permission thing (it's fine scrolling up when it disappears).

@NotionHQ Pretty much unusable for half an hour now, your status page is claiming 'fully operational'. It's not, and no one is answering us on Twitter either. Come on!

@NotionHQ I'm stuck in a redirect loop where it asks me to accept cookies and then reloads my page. And then does it over and over. I've hard refreshed, cleared cache, deleted all my Notion cookies, logged out and in... What am I meant to do?

@TicketmasterCS the popup support on the website is incredibly frustrating. How do I actually connect to someone rather than get autoprompted replies? I might as well just read an FAQ if you're going to do that.

@yesiamben Yes! There’s a small delay because it’s being handled by our Euro label and the record isn’t available through them just yet. Keep an eye out for it and we’ll make some sort of announcement when it’s live.
