Apple really messed up Playlists in Sonoma on Mac, why no more album artwork?

So Apple Music in Sonoma has had a major change to playlists, and it literally removes features in favor of making your own ugly generic playlist covers, that literally no one wants. And it used to take 4 albums that were in the playlist and make that the cover, but nothing with covers is even an option anymore, except adding your own.

And if you make playlists out of a single album, it used to take the name of the album, but now you have to type it in yourself, and it won’t take the album artwork or allow you to paste the artwork you copied from it’s own artwork tab, you have to select from a file or from photos. So if I put in a new album, I have to put the album artwork on the track, then add it to the playlist too? WTF APPLE!

The new ploylist window with the ugly generic art you can chose and what you type shows up over it.

The add your own artwork (no option to use existing artwork).

You can drag artwork to the plus or choose a file or from library, but nothing to chose album artwork, WTF!

I consistently feel like Apple puts people in charge who have never used the software, or aren’t long term users, or don’t see why people liked the old behavior.

There is a thread on this at Apple, but since Apple doesn’t read their own forums, who really cares?

The problem is this needs to get out to the tech press, so that Apple actually sees about it and sees that people care about this, but with people just talking on the forum that they don’t even read it will never get seen. Hopefully people will at least post some feedback and get this out there.

StopTheScript for Safari, is my new go to extension

From Jeff Johnson of Underpass App Company, this works in safari in iOS and Mac.

This app stops Javascript from running on pages, and I use it to block sites that make you turn off content blockers before you can view the site.

I know sites need revenue, but random ads only annoy me, and some of that is that I edit commercials, so I know the tricks and they just annoy me! So i block them and making me turn off my content blockers annoys me even more!

This takes a little effort and a little work, but it does what it says (and some pages break when you stop the scripts), and I love it.
