Hi, Spotify no longer lets you use localhost as part of the redirect_uri which breaks the auth, i tried using http://127.0.0.1:8888 instead which sadly doesn't work.

Spotify-tui has unfortunately been abandoned by the author, and since then, the Spotify API changed signficantly, breaking this project. You may also notice breaking Rust and library changes.

Please use spotify_player: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player, which is more feature-packed and more convenient.

you got to go in to your Spotify settings and change your proxy settings to Socks4 and enter the ip address 127.0.0.1 and put the port as 8888 and your Spotify username in the username box
its call proxy callback rerouting the proxy is how the client talks to the developer console

@AntoneBrewer You made a duplicate PR https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/pull/1163 to PR https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/pull/1151, which most likely will remain open for as long as this project is abandoned.
