User reports playlist issues
One Spotify user has detailed their issues with the app to Downdetector.
"My playlist (of calming music to get my day started on a positive note) just stopped," they wrote.
"When I reloaded Spotify (desktop), it was then blank. Tried again, then got the message: 'Can't find that playlist'."
"Now, it found it again, but the list is completely blank. This also happened a couple times yesterday. Relieved to see I'm not the only one experiencing problems with Spotify."
"Was beginning to think maybe my playlist is too long (over 24 hours). ;-)"
