Yes, our awkward playlist support is simply a bug (or more precisely, the lack of a feature). It's not an intentional design choice. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406477

Hey, not sure if this would be the right place to say this, just my 0.02$ of feedback on the playlist stuff. Most people I know listen to music through playlists, with most of my friends having around 5 of them. One of the things I miss from other music players is having such playlists readily available on the side bar, such as in rhythmbox, spotify, itunes, etc. I'm not sure how the playlist sidebar came to be, as I can't see it in the mockups, but it seems to assume that when a user wants to listen to a playlist they will load it from a playlist file and into the queue. In my eyes, this has a few implications when it comes to user experience:

  1. It has a steep learning curve: it takes a bit of time to wrap your head around the logic of loading playlists instead of playing them. Loading files is also not a very user-friendly way of listening to a playlist.
  2. It mixes the concept of queue and playlist: while it's an interesting idea, the two concepts aren't totally compatible. Let's say, for example, that I have loaded a playlist to the queue and i have made some modifications to the queue (let's say that i have removed some songs that I wasn't in the mood for). Now imagine that i wanted to add a song to one of my playlists: because the queue is where you edit the playlists, I would have to clear everything in that queue, load the fresh playlist, add the song, save the playlist and then remake the queue that I made earlier. As you can see, it interrupts playback and can be confusing if you don't understand the logic behind it.
  3. It clutters the UI: while it is normal for professional software to use multiple panels to give access to more functionality at once, in my opinion a music player doesn't have to cater to the power-users, instead aiming to be as intuitive and simple to use as possible. Unless you make playlists for a living, I'm sure that most users would rather have ease of use than direct access to all of the features.

Therefore, I propose that playlist list be implemented in the left sidebar, for quick access. I see that a lot of people here are very fond of the playlist sidebar, but listing the playlists on the side would make it a less essential part of the UI and it could be moved to an entry on the left sidebar, like rhythmbox does. This way we could keep the same flexibility when editing the queue, with the only inconvenience being that it wouldn't be always visible.


I don't want this to sound like one of those "I want this because x application does it this way", but I feel like the design patterns that the users are used to conflict with Elisa's current implementation. Huge thanks for all you work!

the api which plasmoids use to notify "apply needed" is kinda weird.

I'm having a look at this if everyone is ok.
I started following the kirigami drawer idea using the states browsingViewsNoPlaylist and browsingViews defined in ContentView.qml.
When in the browsingViews state, keep the current layout.
When in browsingViewsNoPlaylist state, currently the playlist disappears and is no longer visible, I juste added a drawer that is enabled only in this state.
I made a quick video to show what it currently looks like (attachment).
If this direction is ok for everyone, I will continue working on this.
