My Question or Issue

to the best of my knowledge the public playlists feature is broken. Yes this is on another account but it doesn't change the fact that i hopped on my phone and it still wouldn't appear as a public playlist even on my own account...

Now the issue might be that its a collaborative playlist between me and some friends of mine but it shouldn't mess with my playlist to the point that nobody can see it if they don't have the link. This needs to be looked into and fixed. It does not appear on any other account I login to and the webpage wouldn't fix this issue either, if anyone doesn't have a link to the playlist then in other words the playlist doesn't exist on Spotify. I have seen that the feature is available on phones but on phone its listed as public. and even if this feature isn't available on desktop it should be.

Hey @Novattz!

In addition to being made public, the playlist needs to also be added to your profile - just right-click it (or open it and click on the three dots menu) > Add to profile. The playlist will now show up under the Public Playlists section when someone opens your profile.

On the desktop app there's a feature Publish my new playlists to my profile which you can toggle on in the app's Settings so that all new playlists would automatically show up on your profile.

Hope this clears things up. Cheers!

No public playlists are showing up on my profile, even when they are set to public.
