Ripping spotify - eviltoast

The spotify app keeps getting worse by the week. At this point it won’t load my saved song list at all when I’m offline. While writing this, it just crashed in the background.

So I’ve finally had enough and started looking for a ripper to use a different player app.

But try and google for one and you’ll be surprised, the only reasonable results are github repos from 5 years ago and before you find one of those, you get a bunch of AI generated trash and some paid services whose websites also look very AI-generated.

Are there any proper ways to do this? Alternative spotify apps exist (though they don’t seem to be very usable yet) so I’m sure there’s a way to get something from the API, even if it means I need to register for API access.

    Try slavart dot gamesdrive dot net (or use their server on divolt.xyz)

    Their website lets you search for songs and download them, or their Divolt for using a bot that lets you type $dl link-to-song and it’ll send you a download link.

    Also the Divolt bot supports Spotify, Qobuz, Tidal, Deezer, and if I remember correctly Apple Music links.
