Ask HN: How is the Spotify app so bad?

The library tree view is so terrible. - You cannot shift+click select to easily add playlists into a folder. - Any podcasts you follow cannot be moved into folders to tidy things up. They just clutter the sidebar. - You have to click on a tiny arrow to expand a folder. Clicking on the folder navigates inside the folder. The fact that podcasts are in the same Spotify mega-app is terrible too. And the podcast experience is a complete mess. I listened to an interview with the head of Spotify product, and he talked about how great it was to have everything in this mega app. I just feel the opposite of everything he said. It's one of the most popular services in the world, but has one of the worst user experiences of all the apps I use. And they actually think they are doing a good job at it.
