Whats happened to Roon Radio now?

That’s disappointing, because I and others detailed (with copious data) the major issues that Roon Radio was having 4.5 years ago. Based on my experience trying Roon again a few months ago, and what others have said in this thread, not much has been done to eliminate Roon Radio’s propensity to repeat a small number of artists, to never explore more than 2 or 3 albums from an artist even though they may have 15+ in their discography, and to choose songs for the radio that are absolutely not related to whichever song was used to start the radio.

It seems that the vast majority of the suggestions that the community have put forth to fix these issues, and to generally improve the customization of Roon Radio, have been ignored. I would love to come back to Roon since I’m not totally happy with Plexamp either, but it does seem after such a long time that Roon Radio is the bastard stepchild of the service. Which sucks for me, because an intelligent personalized radio is one of my favorite ways to listen to my music collection and also discover new music via Tidal.
