Apple Music wont actually shuffle

Why is it that when I shuffle my playlists of hundreds of songs, the same ones get played over and over while others never get played.

All are downloaded onto my device, and the issue persists whether or not there is internet connection.

newly added and old songs alike.

iPhone 11

My Apple Music Plays the Same Songs I have a ton of songs, 1.55 gb. Problem is, it keeps playing the same songs. I have it on shuffle as well as repeat is off. How do I fix this? I don’t want to go through the trouble of making playlists. I’m always clicking shuffle over and over. It will play a couple different songs but then goes back to the ones that were recently played. Super annoying.

why is apple music only shuffling my first 100 songs? Apple music on its website on my school computer is weird, like it only plays/shuffles the first 100 songs on my playlist. I have to play the next 100 songs manually because it won’t shuffle them. does anyone else have this problem? Can you actually fix this? (ignore the device, it wouldn’t let me change it lol)

Apple Music only shuffles the first 100 songs on a playlist When I press shuffle on my playlist (on IOS and web), only the first 100 songs listed get shuffled. Then, once these 100 songs are played, the queue ends. I press 'shuffle', and check the queue. The first 100 songs exactly are shuffled, and any songs past the hundredth don't get played. It doesn't matter what order my playlist is in either, I move all the songs around and the new first 100 are played, followed by nothing else. This basically softcaps the amount of songs in a playlist to 100 for me, because I don't listen to playlists in order.
