Using Classic iPod with New Apple Music app

Has anyone with a classic iPod had any luck with the new Music app?

I tried to make the transition and now find my beloved iPod all but useless. The new app does not have a column browser to allow for locating and organizing songs. Further, I now find it impossible to do something as simple as delete songs from my device.

This supposed 'improvement' has been a total disaster, both for my iPod and my computer in general. My system has never before run so slowly. It's a wonder I can even use the internet at all. I can't begin to express how much I regret upgrading to Catalina.
