Proselytize Religion
From Reddit
As a community with an interest in providing the best resources to its members, the following wiki links are provided as historical reference until we can establish our own.
I can't help but wonder what your normal taste in music is that it even randomly suggests Christian stuff. I have a lot of religious-heavy music (some even were considered to be Christian-lite back in the day) and I don't get the really preachy shit. I get more Chris Cornell or Creed. π€·π»ββοΈ
When I had Spotify, if it played religious music for me, it was usually Bach or the like.
Curious the songs in question so I can view the lyrics. Iβd be curious if itβs simply working out of sound alone and not taking the lyrics in question when youβre liking and disliking things. Also a lot of Christian values are just things stable people acknowledge are the right things to do in life lol.
I was going to look up what artist I just blocked, but apparently you can't see a list of what you've blocked on any of the apps, I have to go through and request my data and wait for them to deliver a zip file ugh lmao
is it not-

edit: oh are you referring to the "don't play this artist" button? if so, yeah, i don't see a list of artists you've selected that on.
Creed - Anything
Uh. lol. I think Spotify's recommendation algorithm isn't up to the task and isn't providing me with good playlists... But it's never ever recommend Christian rock to me. Guess I listen to too much metal. Or it's based on location or something like that.
Maybe use the 'β' Dislike button everytime this happens and hope the algorithm learns? I'd also consider adding some Dimmu Borgir or Pagan Metal to the heavy rotation π
I try to, but my tastes cross ...pretty much all major genres from Pop to rap to even a bit of metal, so I think the algo has a difficult time locking on lmao. My "curated" playlist is just 1 giant playlist that I put all songs that I like onto lolol
