I was happily using this for a year or so now. Feels fairer than using an ad blocker. But now they apparently want more money out of people. Feels like some sort of internet video apocalypse is happening, where the services become extremely fragmented and expensive, like YouTube, netflix, hbo, Hulu, Disney+ and whatnot. Each wants some 10-20€ out of your pocket.

I guess that means back to ad blockers and piracy…

    I’ve never tried it, but there is the manage history option where you can delete entries from your play and search entries. Also there is the pause history option - but I agree, these are buried and unappealing options most people won’t bother.

      Oh I didn’t know about that… saving for alter for looking where the hell are those options.

      YES!!! Thanks for this, I didn’t know this was an option. I removed all my wife’s additions and it gives me an easy way to down vote songs i don’t want. Haven’t found the pause history option yet but just being able to manage the algorithm is great

      Edit: It’s in Settings under Privacy. Wish it was a button or something easily accessible in AndroidAuto

        That’s awesome, so glad this helped.

        I actually shelled out the extra cost for a family plan for my wife and son (as well as my parent’s Sonos) to not need to deal with stuff like this - but I really think this should just be “an option”.
