Confused about my flow maybe buggy?

Soo… Most of my music i hear is Metal / rock / gothic and sub genres EDM too and stuff.

 

Most of my liked stuff too including artists.

 

Yet my flow thinks “hey lets give the listener Trance / techno / pop 24/7”

Youtube music really did a better “flow” with their mixes their flow being called “super mix”

 

Somehow on deezer “change the style” doesnt change it either its even after 20x still trance techno…. i can skip and dislike as many songs as i can and yet flow thinks “yes more of that “

 

Meanwhile youtube music generates new recommendations after 1-3 skips and mixes actually more genres into your “flow” of your loved music but also new music.

 

Why does flow work so much worse which is the main feature of deezer ? it Literally feels stuck and buggy

weirdly if i tell flow to play “more favourites” it literally shows me all songs which arent favourites , and if i want to discover more it shows me basicly 1 favourite and 9 non favourites ( ofc both cases all Techno / trance ) 

Example

https://prnt.sc/gGzzQyG5d_k0 “FAVOURITES”

https://prnt.sc/5AiM_tupXtEY “Discover more”

Deezer also knows that Metal and rock are my Top Genres yet it NEVER uses songs from these genres in flow WHY

 

It honestly feels like YTM with its worse audio quality stole the entire game regarding “flow” it just works SOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER.

 

iam in 2 trial months and iam already doubting if i will use deezer after those because better audio quality simply doesnt fix that deezer recommend me 24/7 wrong music.

hey ​@Evonos what are you using at YTM that you are comparing to deezer’s Flow?

edit: I see you’re mostly using your Supermix.

I have both services and would just like to add a little food for thought.

For me, Flow is more fluid (sorry couldn't help myself). I can start it in the morning and it will run all day. My Supermix is a playlist. I can see the entire playlist up front, there’s no mystery, and at some point it ends and I have to restart it. Flow is a surprise box that just keeps going.

For me, and I've been using both services for years, Flow is better with integrating discovery tracks, and I get fewer repeats. Anytime I use my Supermix, I can be assured that within the first few songs, I will get one of my Supermix songs. And that goes whether I'm using the standard Supermix, the chill Supermix, or whichever. Which, by the way, deezer has covered. If you haven’t yet tried the different varieties of Flow, I recommend it.

At any rate, I would suggest giving deezer and Flow a little more time to get to know you.  Obviously, if it doesn't work out, it doesn’t work out.

Thanks for giving deezer a shot.

My other comment is in moderating Q soo… yeah..

 

Idk Supermix doesnt stop ever its like Flow , and most often in flow i also see between 6-12 titles “upcoming” 

I just dont know what i can do anymore to deezer to improve for me neither for my GF i had Roughly 4500-6000 songs Listened to in my Trial time with deezer.

Specially for my GF i even tried to help her Disliking multiple hundred songs and bands flow even started to give her songs from bands she entirely disliked for some reason.

 

Generally it looked like Deezer took roughly ( for me ) to adjust  4 maybe 5 weeks but didnt get my listening habbits entirely while i even tried to force feed my taste via listening to only imported favourites and bands.

maybe someone could check my Gfs account ( linked profile in my account ) why it only goes for Oldie music on her account i still have 2 weeks trial left and can undo the cancellation till then if it suddenly extremely improves.
