Apple Music glitch(?) adding albums to the library that I didn’t manually add

Recently, if I add a song to a playlist, the whole album gets added to my music library. Previously it didn’t do this. I think this is a glitch but I’m not sure. Is there a way to fix this?

iPhone 15, iOS 17

Adding songs to playlist i guess this is a new bug but whenever i try to add a new song to my playlist in apple music, it adds it to my library as well even though i have that option turned off in the settings. and when i turn it off and try to add a song to my playlist again, the option in settings automatically turns on without me doing anything.

Apple Music is not saving new Albums or Songs into my library after being added. They will appear for a few seconds and then are removed. Have not encounterd this issue before. When I add new songs or albums in Apple Music on iPhone (14 Pro Max, 17.1 iOS), they diappeaer from my library and from Recently Added in Apple Music. This has been happening for several days. For some reason, the issue also seems to only be related to Albums or Songs I've added, but not to Playlists which seems strange. Wondering if anyone else has encountered this or if there are any recently known issues, any help or guidance to resolve the issue is much appreciated.

Apple Music Home Library Issue The Apple Music home library is not working as it always has done previously and I am not sure if this is a bug issue or an enacted change and new expected behaviour. Now when you add a song to a playlist it shows each individual song in your library tab home screen. This is clearly unnecessary, superfluous and incredibly annoying. The whole point of a playlist is that you are categorising your music, as such, if I want to see that song I would go to that playlist which if the playlist has been recently created would always show in the library home anyway. Having every single song added into playlists now showing up on your library home only serves to dilute out recent playlists or albums that you have personally added to your music library and that you would like to easily access. It wouldn't be so bad if say you recently updated a playlist and the playlist as a whole got moved up on the home library screen but every song is such a terrible feature. This makes the user interface incredibly annoying and in my opinion no longer fit for purpose. Is this an issue other people are having or is it likely a bug?
