The spotify app keeps getting worse by the week. At this point it won’t load my saved song list at all when I’m offline. While writing this, it just crashed in the background.

So I’ve finally had enough and started looking for a ripper to use a different player app.

But try and google for one and you’ll be surprised, the only reasonable results are github repos from 5 years ago and before you find one of those, you get a bunch of AI generated trash and some paid services whose websites also look very AI-generated.

Are there any proper ways to do this? Alternative spotify apps exist (though they don’t seem to be very usable yet) so I’m sure there’s a way to get something from the API, even if it means I need to register for API access.

    Music slav on divolt. Plop in the link to the playlist/album into the download request then wait for it to download and zip it and you download from there. Max 100 tracks per playlist however.

    It’s how I get my liked Spotify songs downloaded in mp3 with no DRM and throw them on my iPods.

    Obviously a VPN is recommended

    Works with FLACs off Deezer, Qobuz and Tidal as well

    Edit: hmm looks like they’ve moved to discord now
