10k limits increase for personal playlists on Deezer

Now that Deezer has announced that the favorites playlist 2k limit cap is being raised to 10'000 tracks, I don't understand why user created playlists aren't included in this effort.

Why am I not allowed to add up to 10'000 tracks for into my own playlists? Deezer please get your censored together, as this makes no sense. 

I'm grateful that it's now possible to add 10'000 tracks as favorites, but I want same approach for my own playlists. They are still capped at 2k tracks, as you can see in the following statement, ONLY favorites playlist has been raised from 2k to 10k tracks.

    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 :wink:

    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 :persevere:

    @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:

    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.
