Hi HN, a few weeks ago I made a "replacement" for the Spotify desktop app
because I wanted a tiny player instead of a whole window I need to bring up to
skip songs/etc. It's free & open source, works on Windows and MacOS and even
has visualizations (remember those?). Anyway, I thought I'd share it here. Any
feedback is welcome.

Download it by going here: [http://www.lofi.rocks/](http://www.lofi.rocks/)

Spotify has revenue in the billions each year. And while this is a nice bit of
code and obviously scratches your itch, don't you feel maybe a bit silly doing
their work for free?

Ah, when I first started programming this would have been tongue in cheek. But
times change!
