I appreciate that Qobuz is a French company, but I'm finding the comparative lack of English artists to the amount of 'foreign' acts frustrating.
They are almost all acts/artists I have never heard of.
Is it just me?

I'm Lawrence.
Can you give some examples of missing English artists?
I got the impression some music is uploaded by the artists themselves if they are little known, like Bandcamp etc. Perhaps it's not as popular to do it over here but just see it as a bonus if it's that.
If you're taking about reasonably well known signed bands then that's different.

Morning Lawrence!
It's mainly in the new release section, I'm not saying UK acts aren't included, just that a ratio of something like 100-1 are acts totally unknown to me. Tim Bernades, Adam Naas, Horse Girl, Kokoroko....who???

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Kind of sucks for discovery if you’re not into the same kind of stuff as them. It’s not that they don’t have the content, they just can’t customise per user.
I use Spotify just for discovery / curation. Make playlists and transfer them into Qobuz.
Even playlist view in Qobuz is annoying.
If you could use Spotify as a front end for Qobuz I’d pay for that.

I've just checked, I'm a Roon user and made a search in Qobuz and Tidal at the same time and could find Kokoroko and Paris born Adam Naas. It occurs from time to time for some unknown reasons: some musicians/records/tunes can be found with using Qobuz through Roon and the opposite is sometimes true as well. Mysteries, mysteries...
