Yes, that was the final straw for me.
Me too. I've been using Youtube Music since then since it's bundled with Youtube Premium. I think it does a reasonable job of introducing me to me music, and playing things that I enjoy. I make an effort from time to time to seek out new music so that I don't get stuck in an algorithmic echo chamber.
The algorithm does have a tendency to play the type of music I've been listening to recently, and to forget about some of the stuff that it hasn't happened to play in a while. To compensate for that there is a playlist of everything you have liked, and the "archive" mix, a playlist of music you haven't listened to in a while.
This is what I have been using. I like many of the features but am frustrated with others. For example, there are artists that I absolutely hate but still get put into the playlists.
