Apple Music randomly deletes my music

I woke up this morning to find that Apple Music had randomly deleted some music from my library. The album was still there, but it was just the header image and description. All the songs were gone: it was an empty album. This has happened in the past as well, but only with imported files opened into Apple Music as far as I'm aware. I don't know if it deleted my other music at all, but it's super annoying to have to deal with and this is very erroneous activity. The only weird thing that might have caused this is that I imported a file into Apple Music on my Mac so I could use it as an alarm on my phone, and therefore had to turn off and then back on the "sync library" function. It shouldn’t have deleted the album or anything else though, since my phone also has that album on it. What do?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.5

I’m literally about to ditch Apple permanently because music that I’ve had since 2005, imported into iTunes via CD is now being removed from my devices and Apple says it’s unavailable. All this control over what content is on my phone is getting absurd. So much for trusting this brand…
