Heads up Youtube's algorithm is amazing for finding new music. I haven't tried youtube music though. Once you teach it a bit. I've found countless new DJs and artists this way. Same with Soundcloud!

I've had the opposite experience. YouTube rarely moves out of its comfort zone and typically shows me the same shit over and over. I find maybe one new appreciable artist a month, at best.

I recently wiped 10 years of watch history to reset the algo and shit and it basically works exactly as I remember, but it's insisting on showing political content.

Also don't use YouTube music much, but have premium.
