more data for spotify, and more lock in
instead of a sharing id in the link that doesn't withstand secondary sharing, removing, etc, they now get who sent you the link, whether you opened a link sent to you, how long, etc. also encourages people to actually use the follow feature
instead of your friends sending you spotify links in whatever platform that you can go look up on a different music service, you have to use spotify to get their messages
I just miss the friend activity panel. that's as far as the social features should go. maybe it'll get some love with this
