iPod Shuffle contents not shown in Music on Catalina

Is the better solution to roll back to an earlier version of macOS, or to switch to a non-Apple music player/service?


I know mine is a very old device. It is too bad Apple’s software is not as dependable as its hardware. I saw this image today, so I know its not just us old dudes who continue to use dependable old hardware:
