<p>最近从 Spotify 迁移到了 YouTube music，结果发现把 playlist 全加入 liked music 里这么基础的操作竟然没有原生支持，还要在 reddit 上找 AI script 操作 ( <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/YoutubeMusic/comments/18s50uo/comment/n6ojg33/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.reddit.com/r/YoutubeMusic/comments/18s50uo/comment/n6ojg33/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.reddit.com/r/YoutubeMusic/</span><span class="invisible">comments/18s50uo/comment/n6ojg33/</span></a> )。真是离谱…… 还有官方迁移工具明明有歌手和歌名信息一般搜出来首个就是还能 match 错好多歌（基本都是同名但完全不同的歌）相比之下都是小问题了。</p><p>终于下决心迁出用了好多年的 Spotify 的原因是随机算法实在是差到离谱。平时开 local 几十分钟的路还勉强能忍，前阵子 road trip 开了十天车我库里 500 多首歌它竟然来来回回就只播那么几首，是怎么能烂到这种程度的，是故意做得超烂好让你用加推荐功能的吗？真是烂到家了。</p><p>也算是 tech 市场现状了。就是比烂</p><p><a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#tech</a> <a href="/tags/rant/" rel="tag">#rant</a></p>
