Also, it would be nice if Spotify could bring back the ability to follow friends without requiring Facebook.
My biggest gripe is they removed the ability to send songs to friends.
I already unlinked my Spotfiy account from Facebook with this way: https://robblewis.me/convert-spotify-facebook-to-email-login... No account migration of contacting support is needed. Just use your registered email account to reset (or in this case actually set) your account password and afterwards you can log in via your email+pw. Then in the Spotify preferences the button to disconnect Facebook becomes available.
Hopefully this works!
Now, if we can just garner enough user support to get Spotify to remove the 10,000 song limit, that would be awesome. https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Your-Music-Incre...
Yeah, nothing listed here has worked for me. The issue is I had two accounts with the same email address one with Facebook one w/o. Not sure how it happened but if I try to reset the password of my account with my email address I immediately receive a "welcome back to facebook" email. So, they are keeping the OID information somewhere. I've asked, begged, pleaded, and demanded for them to fix this and I've gotten abs…

The recent data breach made many people realize that you're always just 1 instance of bad luck away from having a bunch of aggregated personal data stolen. It's pretty reasonable to decide you're better off removing yourself as a target than hoping Facebook will never again experience bad luck.
Every direct mail list provider on the planet has just as much info on you as FB, and they have garbage security. This is an overblown risk comparably. Source: Have bought DM lists of millions of people with full addresses, estimated salaries, employers, etc.
Spotify has some really strange "won't fix" issues... I'm on a Spotify family plan. I recently bought a Spotify gift card on sale, because you can usually apply those for a credit on subscription services. Well, it turns out unlike the rest of their plans, Spotify Family doesn't support gift cards. I didn't even consider that it might not apply to all plans, and didn't check the fine print. Disappointed, I contacted…
My friend had her password guessed (you can buy hundreds of hacked premium Spotify accounts online for We emailed Spotify about this as it was happening and there was no way to lock this person out. Sorry! They advised her to create a new account and they would gift it with some duration of premium access.
To make things worse, she was the one who started our family-plan, and their customer support was unable to simply migrate the plan to her new account. She registered a new account and added it to the plan. This intruder was basically able to free-ride on our plan and force her our of her own account.
When I later saw the price of hacked Spotify accounts, I thought it was a great value!

Nice - this trick also works for Strava (for which I originally signed up using Google)!
I actually liked having Strava post to facebook, but now I get an error every time I try to tell it to post a run I just completed to facebook. I might have to go into facebook's app settings and remove Strava and add it back, or to disconnect it inside Strava and reconnect it.

Spotify still has a limit of 10.000 saved items. An album with 10 songs counts for 11 (10 song entries and 1 album entry). Meanwhile you can create 10.000 playlists with 10.000 songs no problem. So the saved items is obviously a very crappy (database?) design and they still refuse to fix it. Very glad I have Apple Music now...
I swapped to Google play music, though. They like to re-upload / move albums around and automatically remove them from my lists without telling me. Not particularly thrilled about that, either.

That is a strange issue. I have all of my music (sans the few tracks not on Spotify anymore) saved in a Starred playlist which I started 7 years ago when Spotify saved music via "stars." Even there though, I only have 7K tracks - how do you have 10k?!
