How is their recommendation system?

It’s okay

They have one generated weekly playlist (every Friday) and after several weeks it matches my tastes very well and I discover new music through it.

On their mobile apps you can create “radio stations” from a song which is comparable to the same feature on Apple Music. That does not fully work on desktop.

On desktop you can set it to keep playing after your current playlist is done and it goes into recommendation mode based on (I think) the last song you heard.

They mostly have more manually curated playlists, the themed ones can be truly terrible (like their spring cleaning playlist that was just songs with cleaning in their title), but the rest and artist based “listening with” ones are great.

You won’t find user generated playlists, and I haven’t figured out if you can easily import them — there are third party apps for that but I never tried them.

Oh, they also show similar artists on album and artist pages, those are generally pretty good.
