My Spotify algorithm served me a lullaby playlist after I hit 5,000 hours of death metal

Hit 5k hours of Meshuggah and Cannibal Corpse last month, and now the app thinks I need Twinkle Twinkle Little Rock Star to wind down. Anyone else get junk recommendations that completely miss your vibe?

... wait, five thousand hours of death metal in one year? That's like listening to blast beats nonstop for seven months straight, how are your ears still attached to your head... Spotify really took one look at all that chaos and decided your soul needed Baby Shark on autoplay, that's just about the most wrongheaded algorithm call I've ever heard of.

Read somewhere that Spotify's algorithm is basically trying to give your brain a break after all that heavy stuff. Still, going from death metal to lullabies is a wild jump, feels like it missed the mark by a mile.
