Nearly the same for me, the algorithm has introduced me to a new artist once, ever (and that was the old Google Play service which is no longer available).

Most of the time it creates playlists which are as someone described 'radio curated by the worst version of myself'.

My music discovery is via genre specific radio, a few review magazines, and exploring similar artists via reddit or allmusic.
