Is Spotify deleting bot accounts?

Featured Replies

Past two days everyone lost millions of monthly listeners. This is kind of unprecedented, does it mean that Spotify is doing some cleaning in the house?

 

 

Anticipating dramatic drops for BTS songs in the Thailand and Vietnam Spotify charts. :matty:

To be honest, I expected bigger drops for everyone. Losing between 800k-1M doesn't seem like something big compared to their total. 

Let's hope so because some of the songs on the Spotify charts are only on there not on real charts

lets hope not I don't want them to think im a bot with all my Allday & THe Ready set plays! im legit just autistic and need to listen to them 24/7 :suburban:

No. Because streams don't drop. They are deleting inactive accounts

This is the monthly listeners I think. It probably will affect streams if Spotify is deleting accounts.

The days that Spotify delete the accounts update already happen without any effect in streams. It hasn't affected at all

Today streams dropped a little bit more than your usual weekend drop

I am wondering if it is truly related to this bot mass deletion...

 

 

Actually,  the only  song to lose millions of streams is that Blackpink member song but I think that was expected, even without the bots deletion :dies:

But these are a lot of accounts being deleted. I wonder what happened. Have they said anything? 

Wow the numbers keep dropping. It is a Lot. What is going on?

3rd day in a row: https://kworb.net/spotify/listeners.html

 

if this continue for another day, then there won't by any artist with more than 100mln monthly listeners (first time in a year or so)

maybe it's connected to this: A German court has issued an injunction ordering stream manipulation service Pimpyourfollower to stop selling products that allow users to purchase artificial plays, views, likes and followers on platforms including Spotify, SoundCloud and YouTube. 

The Pimpyourfollower domain currently forwards to a service called RatingHero24. There's a special package currently priced at €99.99 that promises 25,000 streams, 12,500 followers and 7500 monthly listeners
