      Up makes less sense to me. If I’m going to the next item, why would I be going up? Next should be either down or right, consistent with how we read in English (to the right, then down) and consistent with playlists in media player apps (and YouTube, etc)

      I guess using up for next is so it’s consistent with volume, where up actually makes sense?

      Media players have always used left for previous track and right for next track, so it’s frustrating when UI designs try to change that.
