It is with paylists +500 I see this problem. I do use dynamic playlists as well, but I like to mix my playlsits with Tidal too. I have a quite big library myself 23000+ tracks but much of the new music I listen to is from Tidal. By creating a playlist with playlistmanager from my own tracks(incl rating) and adding Tidal Playlists then I get a very good mix of new and "old" music. Thats why I do this.... I do use smartmix too which also is fine.
