Apple Music playlists empty after a half-day lapse?

I recently decided to cancel my Apple One subscription due to a combination of the ridiculous price and the fact I was barely using anything besides the cloud storage and the Apple Music.


I intended to only keep what I was using, so I resubscribed to both services. Apparently, I waited to resubscribe to Apple Music until the day the cancelation was effective, I have lost most of my playlist content (which has been built up over years).


Is there a way to recover this content? I’ve never seen a subscription service erase so much so fast. It would be virtually impossible to manually recreate these lists at this point, so if they’re lost forever, I might as well switch back to Amazon Music (which still has my playlists from years ago).

iPhone SE, iOS 18
