Description

I use NewPipe for listening to music and I use shuffle mode alot. Therefore I think it would be nice to remember shuffle mode, maybe this can be set as an option in settings. What do you think?

I usually start a playlist from bookmarks, and from there I have to navigate to the player queue and turn on shuffle mode.

Research direction
Investigate how NewPipe currently manages player states (shuffle, repeat) in the player service and queue. Look into existing settings for persistent preferences, possibly using SharedPreferences. Examine relevant files such as PlayerAdapter, PlayQueueManager, and SettingsActivity. Discuss with maintainers in the issue to clarify desired behavior and implementation approach.
