• This is the best Linux has ever been. Truly.

  Psst but currently very limited in features and have to build yourself. Source: about 1 year ago

• fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

  I don't know how can I install this open source software from github. Source: about 1 year ago

• Flatpak Spotify vs Tab in Firefox browser

  Would like to add that you can also use clients such as spotify-qt and Spotify TUI to control said "device". There's also Spot and psst that are standalone (librespot not required but no Connect functionality). Source: over 1 year ago

• Rust audio library

  You can also take a look at Psst. I use Symphonia for decoding and CPAL or CubeB for output. CubeB is a bit nicer. Source: over 1 year ago

  There's also this project, written in Rust, which is a great GUI Spotify client https://github.com/jpochyla/psst. Source: over 1 year ago

• Druid app for public transport data

  There‘s a Spotify client, psst, which has an Async widget (with a Promise state struct) that works very well for loading states etc. That project has a bunch of other tidbits and interesting patterns for Druid, I learned a ton from the code. Source: over 1 year ago

• Advice for the next dozen Rust GUIs

  Not that I'm in any way suggesting that you have to have to pursue this, but I'd suggest that not having this as a goal is why it hasn't happened. I've seen apps built with Druid (like https://github.com/jpochyla/psst) and they look great. But when I looked into the documentation, I was really struggling to get started. In contrast, libraries like Iced are quite limited in what they can do and are not as... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Dear Spotify. Can we just get table of songs?

  There are some alternative frontends for Spotify available. None of the ones I found works on M1 mac, but Windows and Linux users have some options available. https://github.com/jpochyla/psst https://github.com/toothbrush/Spotiqueue https://github.com/xou816/spot. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Spotify has shut down libspotify

  Plugging my ex-colleague's Spotify client called Psst[0] and built with Rust. Not as feature-full than the official client (yet) but way lighter and gets the job done. [0] https://github.com/jpochyla/psst. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Snap has refused to allow disabling of auto updates for 5 years

  You can try https://github.com/jpochyla/psst for Electron-less Spotify. I use the AUR package on Arch. It was crashy some months ago but now works great. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
