My Issue

[Video attached for a visual example of my issue] With the new UI update, any time I go to drag a song or album to add to my playlist, the view of where I left my playlist at gets reset back to the top. For example, if I'm trying to add a new album to my playlist, I would normally go to the playlist, scroll down to where I want to add the songs (as I use the custom order sorting), then I would go to the album on a band page, select all the songs I want to add, drag them to the playlist on the left side, and drop it where I left my view at. The new UI update has broken this and makes adding songs & albums tedious and annoying, especially with playlists that I have thousands of songs in already.

Hey, same here.

I think that removing this feature is really annoying.

I have ~10k playlists and sometimes I like adding new songs just after specific ones. On previous versions  you could place any song exactly where the pointer currently is on a playlist. But now, I have to scroll while holding the new songs from the bottom of the playlist to where I want them and it takes years... It's really spoiling the fun of making huge playlists.
