[Bug Report]

Problem

Trying to search for songs in the search menu or url fetch not working.
(Sorry if this is a duplicate)

https://open.spotify.com/track/5trpicylgbaf2lgbfbhgvo?si=a99ae3fcf3874256
Searching for: In rainbows, forget her, that woman, ANYTHING AT ALL

Version

SpotiFLAC v7.0.4

OS

Linux, Arch 6.18.4-arch1-1

Additional Context

Downloaded via AUR spotiflac-bin

Logs

Is this a Spotify API issue.. if so is there any way for me to add my own spotify API?
Also I noticed the android app (which is a different project) uses Deezer instead of Spotify and it seems to be working fine..

there is an android version of this app, likely what they are referring to.

Those ones are not working for me either, that's funny
Spotify is weird idk..

https://open.spotify.com/track/0WxgcCdTvtOrAqfSDzBcDB?si=25403fa74c4145e4

https://open.spotify.com/track/3wSYM0gFBlZ9u8BgcReQhJ?si=f319d3212eb54c8c

All of these links work for me in a browser right now. I tried all of them in the app and it still fails to fetch metadata..

Searching for anything also results in it saying no results found
