@Eirheart2, here is some information I found, and learned from my own experience as well. Hope this helps. On Pandora, you can’t directly “hide” songs you like from one station without using thumbs down. However, you can manage them by editing playlists or thumb ratings per station. Thumbs are station-specific, so removing a thumbs up or editing ratings in one station won’t affect others.    How Pandora Handles Songs Across Stations Thumbs Up/Down are station-specific: If you thumbs up a song on your pop station, it won’t automatically appear in your study station unless Pandora’s algorithm thinks it fits. Editing thumbs on one station won’t change another. Thumbprint Radio: This pulls from all your thumbs up across stations. If you don’t want a song in that mix, you’ll need to remove its thumbs up from your collection. Playlists vs. Stations: Playlists are manually curated. You can remove songs from playlists without affecting thumbs or stations.   Options You Have ActionEffectBest Use Case Remove thumbs up from a song on a specific station Stops Pandora from playing it in that station, but doesn’t thumbs down it globally Keeps the study station clean without punishing the song Edit playlist directly You can delete songs from playlists without changing thumbs Perfect if you’re using a playlist for study music Create a separate station with different seeds Build a station seeded only with calm/study tracks Ensures pop songs don’t bleed into study listening Use Modes (e.g., “Deep Cuts” or “Discovery”) Adjusts what Pandora serves without deleting songs Adds variety without thumbs downing favorites     Limitations & Trade-offs No “hide but still like” option: Pandora doesn’t currently let you keep a song liked but exclude it from one station. Editing thumbs or playlists is the workaround. Removing thumbs up: If you delete a thumbs up, it won’t appear in Thumbprint Radio anymore. Station overlap: If your study station is seeded with artists similar to your pop station, overlap is inevitable unless you refine seeds.  Practical Tip If you want to keep liking pop songs but avoid them in study mode: Don’t thumbs-up pop songs in your study station. Create a dedicated study station seeded with instrumental or ambient artists. Edit playlists manually for study sessions — this gives you full control without affecting your likes.  On Mobile (Pandora App) Editing Thumbs in a Station Open the Pandora app and go to your Stations. Tap the station you want to edit (e.g., your study station). Tap the “My Station” or “Station Details” option (usually under the station name). Scroll to Thumbed Tracks. Here you’ll see all songs you’ve thumbed up or down. Tap the “…” (More) next to a song → choose Remove Thumb Up/Down. This removes the rating for that station only. Editing Playlists Go to My Collection → Playlists. Select the playlist you want to edit. Tap the “…” (More) next to the song you want to remove. Choose Remove from Playlist. This won’t affect thumbs or other stations — it just cleans up the playlist.  On Desktop (Pandora Website) Editing Thumbs in a Station Log in at pandora.com. Click My Collection → choose your station. On the station page, look for Thumbed Up Songs (usually in the right panel). Hover over the song → click the “X” or Remove Thumb option. This deletes the thumb rating for that station only.     Editing Playlists Go to My Collection → Playlists. Open the playlist you want to edit. Hover over the song → click the “…” (More) menu. Select Remove from Playlist.        Key Takeaways Thumbs are station-specific: Removing a thumbs-up in your study station won’t affect your pop station. Playlists are manual: You can freely add/remove songs without touching thumbs. Best practice for study stations: Avoid thumbing up pop songs there. Instead, curate playlists or seed stations with calm/ambient artists. Have a blessed day. Take care, and GOD bless.  ... View more
