Spotify for Artists is Deleting Historical Data

The inadequacy of Spotify analytics is a grave concern, leaving artists deeply dissatisfied. However, the situation has taken a disheartening turn as Spotify has made the distressing decision to delete artist data from 2020 and previous years.  Their motivation behind this action is none other than reducing storage costs.  This unfortunate turn of events sheds light on Spotify's apparent disregard for the artists who contribute to their platform's success.
