Same gripe. I recently requested all my data from Spotify, scraped play counts out of it (thanks for not providing that in the API) and made a playlist of my liked songs in ascending play count order. Shuffling that, I'm hearing songs I love which I haven't heard in years. Sucks that it takes so much effort

The Worst Idea Of All Time

Even better, one already exists...

I'm pretty sure you can create playlists and add songs via the API. For my purposes, because I wasn't otherwise using the API, I found it easier to just manually copy a list of URLs in/out of playlists on the desktop app.

Vim + grep + tiny python snippet = good enough

Now though, I'm thinking a little script which did a "true shuffle" on a playlist, via the API, that could then be played in playlist order could be just as useful...
