10k limits increase for personal playlists on Deezer

Definitely one for the future @Harmonie however, not going to be a priority in the near future. You've got my vote, hopefully we keep gathering more so that we can put a bit of pressure here internally 

we need 10000 for the playlist!

This is needed massively! Please consider it asap.
Just had to undownload a load of playlists / songs to be able to shuffle play my downloads without including all playlists. Very annoying 

@michelleabelle For what it’s worth, I have a script I created that takes all your playlists with a set of certain prefixes (e.g., anything starting with the word “my”, “happy”) shuffles them all together and then creates another set of 2,000 sized playlists starting with a prefix.

So for example, you can say, take all playlists that start with happy, sad, or noodle (e.g., happy-something, sad-something-else, sad-another, noodle) and create 5 playlists, sized 2,000 each starting with music (e.g., music-00, music-01).

You’ll need to get an API key, but it’s… relatively straight-forward since it asks you questions about what you want to do:

Why doesn't this have more votes? We need more space in playlists! Please..? 🥺

I don't get why they don't do anything about it because this was a thing 5 years ago and there now still questions to increase the limit

@Rudi buy why isn't this a priority? Because a lot of people want it. I really don't get it.

Hi, 

Naive question. What’s the point of having some many tracks in a single playlist? As of now a 2000 tracks playlist will last ~240h or 10 days of continuous play. I do not feel like someone will start a playlist and listen to it 10 days in a row straight. 

Am I missing something here?

@Harmonie I completely agree with you. The worst part is that they changed 5 years a go. I really don't get it.

@Rudi I have a question and it is why isn't this a priority there are so much people that want a 10K limit

I shuffle through my favourites daily, having over 6,000 tracks allows me to be “surprised” by tunes I have not heard in a while. I stream Deezer daily, often for hours at a time and as well when guests are over. The increased quantity of content is certainly appreciated when others hear the variety of tunes. Having had a business where I played music ten hours a day you would be surprised how quickly 2000 tracks becomes stale. Perhaps the shuffle algorithm could be improved which would indeed make a 2000 track playlist more enjoyable, but that does not address the fact that for me and other users 2000 tracks is restrictive. 

Hi,

I understand that. That’s why I have built myself a small website for that purpose (42stats.fr). It records deezer listening history in order to generate a daily playlist of your favorite tracks & albums.

This playlist is sorted so that it does not feel like you are listening to the same tracks over and over again. This works around the 2k limit, since it is changes every day.

Just about to hit the 2k limit on yet another playlist. It's really annoying. I like listening to audio dramas and some series have a huge amount of episodes, each with track numbers up in the 30's or even 40's. It would just be nice to have all episodes in one playlist, instead of having to create lists like "Audio Drama - Episodes 1 -20", "Audio Drama - Episodes 21 - 40", and so on.

Please make this an option...
