When I block an artist or track, I don't want to hear it, even on recommended playlist

Just to add to this, when I block a track or an artist, I don’t want to hear it at all: on playlists, recommendations, flow, etc. 

Hi ​@zx6dude !

Disliking content primarily affects Deezer's recommendation algorithms, such as Flow or mixes, and does not remove existing content from your personal playlists or albums and You can still find disliked tracks by searching 

From Deezer page :

What Happens When You Dislike Something ?

When you dislike content, Deezer will:

Remove it from your Flow
Keep it out of your mixes and recommendations
Learn your preferences to suggest better alternatives

Thanks Nina, I know all this - all I would like Deezer to do as well, is if recommends a playlist for example any of these:

Is that it would remove from the playing queue the artists and tracks I don’t like - it doesn’t do this, but I think it would be a really good feature to have. Either that, or don’t recommend playlists that with tracks and artists I asked not to be recommended.

I signed up yesterday to find an alternative to The Swedish Stream and this is one feature that is very important to me. There are artists I don’t like or even do loathe and I don’t want to listen to them, period. But I also don’t want to have to rely purely on custom-curated playlists, so not being able to block them out in other peoples playlists is pretty close to a dealbreaker for me. So please implement it soon! 🙏

Hey there ​@JGR 

There's obviously a reason you’re testing deezer, some dissatisfaction with your current provider, maybe even beyond the recent price hike and ethical issues (we’ve seen quite a lot of former Spotify users here), so perhaps you will weigh the benefits deezer offers versus what you were used to.

There are trade-offs with every service and we all need to find what works for us. Every service has a different feature set.

Whatever you decide, thanks for giving deezer a try.

Best of luck wherever you land.

I actually have an even bigger problem. It’s happened a couple of times lately that, despite excluding explicitly an artist (and seeing said artist in the excluded artist list), Flow continues to propose me track from those artists. I am not even talking about excluding them from pre-established playlists, I am just talking about recommendation algorithm simply taking in account this feature… Is this a known behavior? that’s pretty annoying.

Hi ​@HatmanDad could you please provide some examples and queue screenshots of excluded artist that keep showing up in Flow in order to investigate?
Thanks for your help
 

Here is the example that made me write to you yesterday. This artist is in my excluded list, yet flow proposed me one of her songs. This is not the first time it happens, but I do not have screenshots of the past occurrences. I’ll try to take more if that continues to happen.
