Deezer is not friendly to new users

I decided to switch to Deezer from Spotify.

I transferred my  Spotify playlists in the directed way.

But where are they now ?  Unlike Spotify, there is no simple playlist selection in the left-hand column,

Deezer is recommending everything except the content I transferred over.

There’s no option to display the recommended content in list form - it’s all huge tiles.

Spotify is bad in many ways, but at least the UI is fairly intuitive and easy for a new user.  Deezer is just throwing its own recommendations at me and not making it easy for me.

The software should work for me. I shouldn’t have to account for the arbitrary whims of the designers, who obviously have no idea what they’re doing.

I won’t be signing up for premium, I’ll just go back to Spotify.

Hello there @Calentor 

Your playlists are under “favorites.”

New services can take some time to get used to, with any luck you will be able to do that and benefit from everything deezer has to offer. If not, thank you for trying and enjoy Spotify, despite whatever it was that caused you to leave.

Cheers

This is the usual home or start screen in the Deezer web player and desktop app:

As @GropplerZorn already mentioned, the Playlists tab can be found in your Favourites in the left navigation frame where you should also find the converted Spotify playlists.

Or are you using a mobile device perhaps? Then please mention if it is an Android or iOS device.
