Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi/issues/514

Describe the bug
I recently made some new playlists and noticed that the API is not detecting some playlists anymore. After fiddling around with limit= parameter, it seems like at most, 25 playlists are always returned, regardless of what the limit is.

To Reproduce

Create more than 25 playlists in YouTube Music.

from ytmusicapi import YTMusic

ytmusic = YTMusic('oauth.json')
print(len(ytmusic.get_library_playlists(limit=None)))

./python test.py
25

ytmusicapi 1.4.2

After more digging, this actually seems broken on website client aswell 🤯 . When scrolling down in https://music.youtube.com/library/playlists , it will show loading infinitely. The problem does not appear when going through YouTube interface, but I guess there is no way to fix this on this library side then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks for cross-checking. I assume it's a server-side problem that will probably be solved in a few days.

Don't hesitate to pester Google support about it 😉
