Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/879

Can we add a feature that shows album art images on TTY with fim or something like that, even though it will not be a properly rendered image?

You can easily take a screenshot from your computer and not have to take a incomprehensible picture. Sorry, but I don't understand what you're trying to say with this. spotify-player's TUI library found that this is the best way to display the image, as full block characters most likely were unqueryable from a TTY.

This is the CLI TTY, not the GUI one.

Ok. Regardless, please re-read the following:
