My Question or Issue

Recent pagination problem with The Web API 'Get User's Followed Artists'.

I paginate through pages of the

https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/following?type=ARTIST

API by at first call not specifying an 'after' parameter, and subsequent calls the after value in cursors.after (same as URL in next field). This used to work until 2021-05-30. After that date the pagination only returned a subset of artists. I follow close to 700 artists and the 'after' is null -> last page only returns about 450. I work around it by retrieving additional pages starting with 'after' the id of an artist i know i follow that's not in the 450 initially returned.
