its been years at this point, and now with a team for almost 2 and basically nothing about proper playlist support< not only that but it isnt even in their priority list

how much longer are they gonna string people about for a feature that frankly doesnt sound that difficult to implement for it to take that long

Why are you complaining on Lemmy about what volunteers are doing LMAO? They don't owe you shit. Submit your contribution.

and i dont owe them a submission either for a feature they themselves have promised and assured would be ready over a year ago and quietly removing it from the priority list?

they should just say they cant do it than

and im here on lemmy cause a. githubs ui is kinda ass (imo) and b. they cant just remove even any bout of criticism or genuine questions they dont like

Submitting your own code for the feature will get said feature to your desktop faster. Again complaining on Lemmy won't do anything. Maybe go on GitHub and communicate with the people volunteering their time and ask what the issue is. Obviously there is an issue or else such a feature would be implemented right? Since you said you can do it faster then them go ahead and do it lmao...

my gf is slowly teaching me coding, by the time i can actually do so more proficiently i can probably submit a request (they likely remove again) and still be faster than they are

Do it! Community projects only happen when a community makes it happen. Developing an app that has to engage with someone else's back end is difficult and they could probably use the help

If they don't like your commit, you can ask them why in case its something easy to fix, and if you can't make them happy then fork the project
