I've tried to reconfigure with couple different settings but it's also not showing anything with verbose either. I'll try to debug the go code later on but wanted to ask first if it's no longer supported or smth?

Same problem here on Gentoo 6.13.2. I checked my system and didn't find anything odd, but https://lyricsapi.vercel.app/ gives me 404 when trying to access from browser which, I assume, is not intended.

Don't think it has to do anything with the code, since I was on 1.2.2 until now and I didn't have a problem until now.

ah, excuse my tired head, I just saw #66 .

I haven't gone through spotify's API Documentation carefully but here it says it wants OAuth 2.0. I'm not sure but maybe cookie based token doesn't contain scope: user-read-currently-playing ?

update: could it be related to this? https://developer.spotify.com/blog/2024-11-27-changes-to-the-web-api

i wonder if it would be easier at this point to bypass spotify entirely and just go straight to musixmatch for lyrics their api is much easier to work with

I migrated lyricsapi to use itunes for fuzzy searching and lrclib for lyrics and it works fine - https://lyricsapi.vercel.app/api/lyrics?name=nirvana%20breed

However, something still needs to be done for those who use Spotify as a player. I'm currently trying to implement the client token logic, but I haven't had much luck so far.

It's not related to distro but spotify as far as I understood. I started to use spicetify, maybe their way of getting lyrics could be an inspiration for an alternative solution.
