* **Yesterday:** Previous day from 0h UTC+0 - to 24h UTC+0. / 24 hours interval for yesterday.
* **Weekly:** 7 days ago based on the current day. The weekly playlist won't start from Monday by default. Time range rounded same as for daily.
* **Monthly:** 1 month ago (30 or 31 days ago), days are not rounded by start of the month and end of the month. Time range rounded same as for daily.
