Notifications from artists I did not like?

It’s my understanding that I’ll get notifications from any new songs if I favourite an artist (which would be like following them). I really hope you’re not implying that just favouriting a random song puts those artists in my notifications (never has that happened over the years of using Deezer until 2 days ago).

Here is a notification, I do have a song I favourited from this artist, but the artist themself is not favourited.

Here is another notification, I don’t see anything favourited related to it.

And then this and this I have at least 1 song favourited. But again, the artists are not.

They were all a part of a notification dump that day with other artists I did favourite.

Hey there @m4a4,

yes I checked your account and I can see that too, I am investigating with the teams and will get back to you as soon as I know more.. 

Hello there all, 

Our teams are doing some tests to improve the algorythm that sends notifications and you are in the group that receives notifications from unliked artists too. 

I will pass on your dissatisfaction! 

Well, it seems like on top of getting notifications for artists I haven’t favourited, I am not getting notifications for artists that I have. I saw that there was a problem a few weeks ago, but I would think that is sorted out by now…

This smaller artist released a song a few days ago. I have them favourited, but haven’t seen a notification. I only know about it because I happen to also follow them on social media...

Hey hey, so you don’t get notifications from ALL your favourite artists because some will be pushed in your homepage on the new releases section or playlist you’ll love section etc… 

We are testing and implementing the algorythm that pushes notifications so some of our users gets notifications from favourites songs and albums, the team will study the activity on this test and decide how to implement the algorythm!
