Please add me to the list, i have responded on many threads on this point, including this one:

Sync tidal in all my devices

I hear what you are saying and I don’t necessarily think Sonos is the model, but what you said is not correct. You can have a “Sonos Playlist” that can have music from all mixed sources and that playlist stays only in Sonos and no one expects it to go anywhere. As you said you can also be in a Source specific area and edit or add to a Spotify or Tidal Playlist. In Roon today, you actually have the same thing. You have Roon Playlists and you have Tidal Playlists. You can see in the attached im…

from August 2017 where I talked about how Sonos allows for editing Tidal Playlists.

There is no technical reason some of / any of these ideas couldn’t be implemented. In general, Roon takes a more Artist/Album/Composer centric view to music. Playlists are much lower on the menu, Playlists are not on the home screen in the boxes up top, the Playlist UI has had minimal updates.

I keep hoping “Playlist love” is coming soon now that 1.8 is launched. Time will tell.
