Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/issues/1086

Fresh install, just entered client ID and secret in the prompt. It opened something in the browser which showed a broken page because nothing is running on localhost:8888, but after that I just get the following error in the terminal:
