Question to people not using playlists

I wonder how the people who don't really use playlists but more specifically only listens to albums use spotify. How do you keep track of the albums you already listened to and the ones you want to listen to in the future? Do you "like" the albums to your library and follow artists? Do you like songs from the album to the liked songs playlist and then suffle it sometimes? I personally struggle on finding the way to use spotify as I feel it's not really a library friendly app. As in if you like a bunch of albums to your library the whole UI becomes too cluttered.
