Selecting 15 artists to use deezer is nonsense

Same for me - just had the idea for the one month for free to use Deezer with the Intention to Switch from Spotify and I do not understand what for hell I need to select 15 artists with my first log-in - I just want to search for musik with my first log-in.

Additional I have no interest for getting proposals what I have to like by an algorithmen with advanced mimiky. 
 

From the „Support“ I got a bla bla „AI-answer“, but not help with just releasing my account for getting rid of that nonsense. …

24 hours for heal that - if I will get no solution, I will cancel my account. 

Isn’t it the case that with other services like Spotify and YouTube Music, you also select a few favourites when you use them for the first time?

And you mentioned that you don’t want Deezer to use its algorithm, the proposals, but that’s bound to happen once you start listening to music. The more you listen, the more personalised the recommendations will become.

They end up in your favorites, so you can remove them there. Luckily you have to do it just once. I agree – such onboarding experience sucks.

In Spotify I have no favorites by hand selected. I have a selection of albums or titles I would like to listen to and ignore all that automated content that artificial mimicry assumes, I would possible like to listen to.

To be honest, I am avoiding to use YouTube and so far I had no idea to see there for music and play that on a HiFi or multichannel home equipment. Both for video and music that YouTube is just LowFi, eventually good for nomadic devices, for which I have only limited expectations in respect of the quality, what in the end is true for the information content I get from YouTube, too. So, no more than two or three times the year I try YouTube, always with the same result, not my way and for me that is waste of time.

Back to Deezer - my intention was to get a better alternative to Spotify, but the official answer from Deezer I got this morning, they are not willing or capable to offer a way to their content w/o that preselection - so I will be out. 

And now the next topic - it is not possible to resign the, my account, because the web-page and the app is not offering to open my stetiges, so I cannot start the resign. …

I don’t care. Stop blocking us from using the service.

And why does Deezer want me to select 10 artists?

The reason the app asks for the selection of fifteen artists is to ensure that users can enjoy all Deezer app features, including Flow, right from the start.

That's why.
