Google-play-music-desktop-player-unofficial-: Very Laggy when playing large playlists

[kodarfour]

OS:
Linux (KDE Plasma 5.13.2)

GPMDP Version:
4.6.1

Issue Descriptions:
This app moves relatively smoothly until I play a song in my liked songs playlist in youtube music mode (it starts to lag alot). I suspect that it is because the playlist (316 songs) is larger than most albums/youtube created playlists.

Steps to Reproduce:
Open app
play a single (no lag)
play a song from large playlist (lag starts)

I'm having the same issue. I can play and enter playlists that are quite small but playlists that are 100+ songs (maybe, I'm not entirely sure) cannot play and I cannot enter them and edit them. This happens sometimes when I open the app.

I'm on Windows 10 and this just started happening today - no client update but maybe a Windows update did it?

Any UI lag inside GPM's UI is not caused by our code, we literally just portal into the GPM website so if their UI is lagging there is not much we can do about it 🤔

The explanation provided would be understandable if this issue did not occur when I used it on the website through a browser. I just wanted the issue to be known just in case there was an problem within the application

Yeah, I also only have this problem in GPMDP so this has to be a GPMDP problem.
