New logo: Explanations 💜

Such predictable stuff. In “strategy” sessions, the Deezer UX whizzes and marketing team probably got together and were told to “blue sky” everything. Make an “agile” platform. Then they patted each other on the back and went out for drinks. Then, they read the feedback and they thought, what’s wrong with our user-base? Aren’t they on our team? I mean, hey, we’re bright, shiny IT kinda people, coder kind of people. We see the world in ways not even god gets! Our user base is just not with it. We want to attract all the kids Spotify already has. And, by gosh, this UX will bring them over by the ton!I’m not cancelling. I’m waiting for the quiet reversion to the features that got “updated” out of existence. And here’s a suggestion: try beta testing. Listen to that feedback. Otherwise, these updates are emerging from a lightless cave. The OP makes that abundantly clear.BTW, did no one at Deezer bother to check what a purple heart comes from: it’s the medal American GIs are given when they’

This is like most of the WTF comments here.This is one of those strange updates where a developer momentarily forgets that in good software, intuitive functionality is everything. This update makes no sense. Why has quick access to one’s artists and album lists been removed? Indefensible.A few months ago, Opera did an update that removed a core functionality involving the way the whole world closes an open tab on a browser. Why?? Lots of boasting. Lots of justification. Then they put it back. So, um, Deezer, I pay for a HiFi service, I don't want a LoFi approach to software design and implementation. Why did release an open beta for user feedback before rolling updates out? Just sayin’. In the meantime, please restore the basic intuitive functionality you have messed up.
