Spotify’s new "Music > Following" update is completely broken for anyone who follows more than a handful of artists

Spotify removed the clean "What's New" tab and replaced it with a buried feed under Home > Music > Following. Instead of automatically showing new releases for all followed artists, it now forces users to manually select or configure who they care about...

I follow 1,800 artists, manually curation is completely impossible. Why would they replace a one-tap chronological feed that actually worked with a tedious UI that misses drops and makes tracking music a chore? Are other heavy users dealing with this on version 9.1.72.1891, and is there any workaround?

RCS stuck on "Trouble connecting / Awaiting retry" after switching to Fold 8 Ultra (Verizon). Losing my mind

Switched from an S23 Ultra to a Fold 8 Ultra on Verizon yesterday (Smart Switch). Calls, SMS, and data all work, but Google Messages RCS won't activate.

I've seen:

  • Connecting...
  • Trouble connecting. Awaiting retry...
  • Verification limit exceeded.

I've already:

  • Turned RCS off on the old phone.
  • Waited overnight.
  • Spent an hour with Verizon.
  • Cleared Messages data/cache.
  • Restarted.
  • Airplane mode.
  • Tried Google's RCS deregistration page (didn't work).

Has anyone with a Fold 8 (or recent Samsung) fixed this? Is it just a 24-48 hour registration delay, or was there something specific that solved it?

Songs by Pretty Lights that aren't on streaming services?

I'm creating a Spotify playlist of Pretty Light's discography, combining songs on official streaming services with songs I locally upload to my Spotify. Here's the playlist:

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5vP3INNxt8sTWFAoqsUHCs?si=89ed79e1f2bb4019

As for songs not on streaming, I just found USB 2.0 and have the remixes he did back in 2010ish, as well as the new Constellation packs. Any songs I'm missing that slipped through the cracks? Just learned that the Bonus Tracks off of A Color Map Of The Sun.

I love this artist and community so much, figured I'd crowd source some! Hope I find new gems through this!

A Trip Thru Time Fantastic songs mapped to live songs?

Basically, I had downloaded live set songs ripped to Soundcloud back in 2023, and a good chunk of the ones I had are covered in the first batch of Constellation packs. Some of the names that were assumed on the Soundcloud rips are different in the official released versions

Here's what I was going off of:
https://soundcloud.com/prettylightslive/sets/2023-08-24-live-the-eastern
https://soundcloud.com/prettylightslive/sets/2023-08-25-live-the-eastern

The ones I have remaining that haven't been covered are these:

  • Stopped thinking
  • With A Lil Love
  • Whistle
  • Sunday's Child
  • Something From Nothing
  • Russian Justice
  • People Drifting
  • Omega Children
  • I Smoke Em
  • Free Stomp
  • Chain Around My Heart
  • You Have A Gift

Am I missing something where one of these ARE in the released constellation packs? What other songs has he played live in the last few years that aren't in that Soundcloud playlist that you're looking forward to for an official release? So exciting!
