How do you organise your music playlists? (midwest.social)

Mainly aimed at those who use Spotify, Tidal, or any other streaming service like myself, but those who pirate music should still feel free to answer!

How do you organise your music library? Creating playlists is pure torture, in my opinion, because there are so many songs that overlap in genres. I've tried creating lists based on genres, but I'm the type of person to listen to multiple genres in one session so the switching between playlists kinda becomes inconvenient. Same with based on mood, I can still listen to discoesque or fast-paced songs when I'm feeling sad.

Genuinely considered hiring somebody to create the playlists for me, lol. I know having 800 songs in one list is clunky, but having everything in the same spot is a source of relief. Ugh.

tbh, I'm always "getting" ready to create a social network to share Playlists based on ActivityPub because sometimes I want Playlists from my friend but they all use Spotify and I use Tidal. Your post inspired me to start it, because now I know there is others with the same need. Anyone who wants to join me, please send me a DM :)

Interested, but you know there's already FunkWhale, right?

I didn't know about it, and looks really interesting (I'll start to use it). But looks like it is more a player with social network features, while my focus is to share and import your playlists across different services. i.e., you have a great Playlist but use it in Spotify. Then, you share it in this system I want to create and I can import this Playlist in Tidal. But, definitely, Funkwhale is a great source to get some "getting started" of code, so thanks for sharing it :D
