unfortunately your engineering team is wrong. altho i can shuffle all my collected songs, there are still a few issues that need to be addressed. they are as follows;
1. whenever i click on "shuffle all songs" the "something has gone wrong. we're working on this issue, and we'll have things back to normal soon" message is still showing up
2. song begins about a minute after clicking "shuffle all songs." it really should not take so long. i don't have this issue when shuffling all stations. problem is wonky coding. plz do better
3. after song begins playing, there is a brief 5 second pause for buffering at approximately :05, :08, & :12 on every song. once again, code based. this doesn't happen when shuffling stations
4. the transition between songs takes upwards of a minute or so before the next song plays. it shouldn't do that, it should smoothly transition to the next song almost immediately like it does when shuffling thru songs while shuffling stations
5. whenever i click to pause the song, or click to play, there is a 10-15 second delay before it actually responds to the prompt. again, dumpster fire for coding. whomever is at the helm of this task really should learn to properly write code. are they like, still a script kiddie or fresh outta i.t. school or something? sheesh y'all need better people on the engineering team. my god, my cat could write better lines of code lol
6. when attempting to scroll up or down through all my collected songs, there is a considerable lag, causing the screen to jump wildly up & down like an epileptic frog. pretty sure this too, is code based in nature
as an experiment, i tried shuffling all songs thru chrome browser, it works just fine. but unfortunately i can't always play pandora on chrome, as that would interfere with my work. it is strictly a desktop player app problem only
in closing, i am just now getting around to reporting this problem as i have a busy schedule most days, but finally just now found the time to do so. look... i don't want to be an a-hole, i am just disappointed that i must critique whomever codes for you in such an atrocious manner. i have been a pandora user now for well over a decade, & a paying pandora subscriber over 6 years. it's just that, i would like my pandora plus experience to be the best it could possibly be. needless to say, i am NOT a happy listener. in conclusion, i hope these issues can ALL be solved in a much more proficient & timely manner than when i originally posted my complaint. because that took nearly 3 months to happen. for as much money as this company makes, you really should be able to hire competent code monkeys who actually know what they're doing. i am not trying to be obnoxious, i am simply someone who tends to not sugar coat things, i just call things as i see them. with that said, i bid you adieu for now. hope to hear back from someone who will tell me these issues will be addressed asap. with that being said, should all these issues cease to exist, i will shout praises on high at the top of my lungs from the rooftops for the engineering team. after all, i consider myself a fair, but judicious user of all things on the internet, pandora being no exception
sincerely,
