community VS spotify-tui

The Kiss Linux repos are not outdated, just the "official" one, there is one that is actively maintained by the community. https://github.com/kiss-community/community.

Yes. The init scripts are written so as to be as init-agnostic as possible. See here to see what has specifically been tested. You'll need to either change what owns /sbin/init or, when configuring the kernel, change what executable it spawns as PID 1. Depending on what init you use, you may have to set up a service manager or gettys manually like this -- custom scripts are placed in /etc/rc.d with self-explanatory suffixes .boot, .pre.shutdown, or .post.shutdown.

back is packaged in the community repository: https://github.com/kiss-community/community

If you use the Official unofficial community repository, watch out for packages that might get dropped by maintainers.

Again, if you had bothered to read the sidebar you would have seen links to both the community site as well as the community github repo.

I am very exited for https://kisscommunity.org, the possibilities are endless!

Kiss linux is what you are searching for

This might not be exactly what you are looking for but KISS linux (https://k1sslinux.org) is a distribution that doesn't force ANY init on you, supports disk encryption ofc, it's probably the most light and minimal distribution out there (the core install has 7 packages), it's rolling release.

It was at this point I was getting a lot of joy out of writing command line applications. I had also just learnt of the existence of spotify-tui and wanted to explore more I could build such applications. So building interfaces for APIs felt like a good way to try this out.

If you are handy with a terminal, spotify-tui is my favorite Spotify controller I’ve ever used. No bullshit at all.

I switched to linux recently and iam loving it the speed and CLI tools that linux provides are amazing you can do anything imaginable in the terminal i use Spotify in the terminal navigate very very fast using auto-jump and its just easier than navigating all those uis and using the keyboard for everything is way faster and easier on your hand than the mouse and keyboard combination especially if you use a window manager

I dont know if it counts but I have used spotify tui on my pi400 a while ago link

For example, there's a couple reddit clients, YouTube viewers, Spotify clients and many many more.

If you want to run Spotify on a Raspberry (or PinePhone or some other device), there’s Spot, which is great, but kinda heavy and slow. There’s Spotify-qt which is faster, requires messing with Spotify developer dashboard, and UI doesn’t fit on small screens. Spotify-qt is itself based on Spotify-tui which runs in the terminal (pretty cool IMO). And a bare client/daemon is spotifyd. So you have quite a few choices there.
