So Spotify recently changed from a green heart and a block song button to and + and a - for liking and disliking. What is your opinion?

My personal preference would be to bring back the green heart and make a deep red broken heart.

And I know spotify is proprietary yada yada I don't care for music streaming. So pls don't let it be a part of the discussion.

To reference this is an old screenshot I found on the internet.

My experience has been that the "-" was exactly the same as a skip. Spotify still plays those songs and even if I've gone to the artist or group and selected "don't play this artist" they'll still come up. So this redesign seems more honest, in that you don't like the song but they'll still play it.
