Stuttering/halting playback both in the browser and in the Windows desktop app

I am using Deezer from Central Europe (Hungary), and in the past few days encountered issues with playback numerous times. The song simply stops for a few seconds or even minutes, likely because it cannot download the next chunk from the server. This theory is supported by the fact that downloading a song has also become significantly slower (once downloaded though, the songs play normally). Seeking into the song helps sometimes, but then it gets stuck again a minute or two later.

Please take a look at the servers serving this area because something seems to be amiss.

EDIT: I’d like to note that all other sites and apps work perfectly, so my own Internet connection is not the issue.

Ok. I'm stressed out. I listen to Deezer 10+ hours a day. However, as of tonight, if I try to play music from the PC app, it stutters and pauses and skips. It's UNUSABLE NOW. I'm not mad. Please don't think I'm in here trying to be rude. Not at all. I'm more panicked than anything else lol. Everything is updated and all good. I deleted the app and reinstalled it also. My internet is showing at 1.3gbps so it's not that, and it's definitely not the hardware. So, I guess the question is that in 2024 is there no fix for this issue STILL?? I love Deezer and I recommend it EVERYWHERE that I go. But umfortunately, if I can't get it working in a relatively quick amount of time, I'll have absolutely ZERO choice but to switch. I'm not doing all this stuff in silence *shivers audibly* no way. Lol.

Hi @dirtyPICKLE I am sorry to hear that.
Does this happens on the web version or just on the desktop app?
Would you be able to provide a video reproducing the problem in order to show it to our devs?
Thank you very much for your help (and support) and apologies for the inconvenience
