Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/895
I opened spotify player after a week, but it couldn't start playback. It would only show me the feed from the cache.
So I did a fresh install of spotify player using homebrew, but the issues still persists.
Running
spotify_player authenticatewould redirect me to spotify's auth page, but the app would still be in its null state.The credentials get stored in ~/.cache/spotify-player/credentials.json.
Here is log:

I am also unable to authenticate. I was authenticated prior, but now there is not connection to any Spotify services via the TUI.

See https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/890. The logs didn't say it's an authentication issue
