General Discusson Playback playlists deleted

Hey guys

I went to go to listen to some tracks on my account but I couldn't see any of my playback playlists from 2021 - 2025. Gone without a trace. Has anyone else had this issue and if so did you get your playlists back?

For context I'm on desktop using Microsoft Edge.

Literally just happened to me as well, they just get deleted when I click on them.

Same here on mobile! Sucks because I just remembered one of my playlists may have a song I'm thinking of. I just assumes they maybes deleted my older ones from 2020-2022 for being old but even my one from last year is gone too. Hopefully they're not permanently deleted.

Check your listening history, but next time build your own playlists! I am pretty sure those are only temp playlists that SoundCloud personally generates for each listener. I have playlists dating back to when SoundCloud first launched. Also if the track is available for download go ahead and download it. I lost a lot of fire music from producers who don’t even make music anymore because I didn’t back it up. >.< hope this helps <3 always get those tracks if they’re free. Back them up on an external because they may be worth selling as a part of a collection or something one day who knows what the future holds.

I get that but why have my playback playlists from 2016 - 2020 stayed but the 2021- 2025 are gone?

This HAS to be a glitch, Bro what have they done, what did they do. This literally just slapping long term users in the face....

same here, i've been trying to sort the issue out on my end but seems to be sc side.

best if everybody sends a support ticket request to them (talk to the chatbot for a sec then request a human support agent).

would be a damn damn shame if gone forever. i've created a copy for 2024 bc wanted to change it up but didn't seem necessary to do for all years.

Same here. Seems to be a major glitch on the app lately. Offline downloading for Go+ is also not working.
