spotifyd VS youtube-music

For those unaware, it's possible to use alternative clients for Spotify using a 3rd party daemon.

https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd

[Unit] Description=A spotify playing daemon Documentation=https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd Wants=sound.target After=sound.target Wants=network-online.target After=network-online.target [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/spotifyd --no-daemon Restart=always RestartSec=12 [Install] WantedBy=default.target

you don't need another frontend. preferred client to handle streaming for spotify-tui is spotifyd.

If you're using a premium account, you could also try to use the browser to control and spotifyd to play: https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd

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.

Spotifyd runs on Linux, can also be recognized by Spotify app as an output requires premium, not sure about touch screen compatability

Install Firefox, ublock origin for desktop YouTube, install https://github.com/th-ch/youtube-music for YTM outside of your browser, use revanced manager for the Android YTM app, stop paying a suckers tax lol

I solved both of these by using a third party app that also allows you to download any song/album and has a bunch of cool plugins.

Hi all, Iii tried to install https://github.com/th-ch/youtube-music on Steam Deck by pacman command and makepkg, but dosnt work ;/ I installed systemd touse PKGBUILD but still without luck. I started learning linux, but looks like I can't understand why steamdeck wont install that AUR package.

I just came across last.fm today, and it's easily working on my phone. However, on my computer I use an unofficial YouTube Music app. https://github.com/th-ch/youtube-music The app says it has a last.fm plugin so I enabled it. I still see nothing scrobbled from this app though. Any help would be appreciated

Man, is there any chance of you working with https://github.com/th-ch/youtube-music to get this extension to their version of YTM app? This is going to be a game changer.
