Group/sort playlists/albums/artists/genres into folders

Tired of waiting for a feature that seemingly never will be implemented, I have now made the switch to Tidal. There they have folders. I can recommend everyone to take a look. You get a one month free trial, so gives you plenty of time to check out their catalogue and their functionality.

Just add dynamic tabs at the top that let us quickly filter our favorites. For example, tabs like Chill, Energize, Sleep, or Relax could instantly sort music by mood or energy level. Within each, the system could further organize by genre or subgenre (like House, Deep House, Organic, etc.), so we can explore our favorites through quick and intuitive taps.

As yet another new user who is leaving spotify for a myriad of reasons, I am dismayed by the lack of support for users who utilize a large number of playlists. 

While I will be on Deezer for the immediate future, all another service which has such playlist features needs to do to capture my subscription is implement similar AI policies to Deezer and I will migrate there instead. 

And that’s to say nothing of the (apparently) recent change to sorting playlists in order of most recently updated (which cannot be adjusted on windows, which is where I use the service). 

The entire way I setup my music library is fundamentally broken on Deezer. 

I would also like to make it clear that this isn’t to bash or complain about Deezer. This is just my incredulity at Deezer not leaping at the chance to capitalize on people fleeing from spotify. If you want to retain those users you need to mirror at least some of the reasons they originally chose spotify. 

This is the only thing holding me back from joining Deezer, I have far too many playlists!

This is the number one reason I will be leaving Deezer. Transferred all my music here, love the AI policing, excellent catalog, good music quality.

But I have 150+ playlists! Not being able to sort them into folders and not being able to see them all in the left toolbar are major breaking points for me. It’s too hard to find the music I want. I’m out.

I am desperate for folders - I left Spotify for ethical reasons, but I had such a good organisation system there and I sorely miss it. Folders would make Deezer perfect.

I’m sorry Deezer, but I’ve cancelled my subscription renewal. I really wanted to love the service, seriously. But I actively hate using your app more than I hate avoiding AI garbage elsewhere and, frankly, taking the time to avoid AI garbage elsewhere helps connect me to the music in my library and my recommendations even more, whereas trying to deal with the abysmal library and playlist setup in deezer just disconnects me from it all. 

Maybe customers like me aren’t who deezer is trying to connect with, and that’s fine. I wish that weren’t the case though, as I truly would support the service and shout its praises from the rooftop if I didn’t hate using it so much. 

If that changes some day in the future, well, then I’ll come back. And hopefully maintain an even longer subscription than I ever had with spotify or rhapsody/napster. But until then, I simply have to say goodbye.
