[Feature Request] Dedicated pages for recommended albums/artists/tracks #333

Open Currrupted opened 12 months ago

Currrupted commented 12 months ago

Description

On the home screen, the app recommends various albums, artists or tracks from the library to the user. This is a very useful feature, but could be expanded. Recommended albums, artists and tracks should each have their own page, as one would expect to explore this in more detail.

Solution

When the application is started, the user will see the sections with 6 albums/artists/tracks displayed. There, it is possible to go to each section to open a new page with the respective recommendations, with a varying list of them. On this page there is also a button to shuffle the current list of recommended music.

Alternatives

Alternatively, it would be a nice idea to offer more elements than only six. I could imagine a setting where it is possible to set the number of recommendations.

Additional Context

None.

Checklist

The thing is, current recommendations are not really recommendations but randoms and not sure how we could improve this without tracking the history. Things like history are yet to be implemented so I'll be giving critical issues the priority for now.
