    This is my high school project btw, i would like some feedback as well as some feature requests it is also available on pypi https://pypi.org/project/yami-music-player/

      Having some issues with it, but might be my error ;) The pip-installed (in a venv) version will complain about missing data/theme.json, and then crash. So then I did the git-clone, pip-install variant, that starts. Interface is very minimal. After pointing it to my sshfs mount (~/mnt/Audio), it will list directories, but won't find a single file, strange.

      Copy the an directory of audiofiles to /tmp, browse there, it works. Very strange.

        if possible can you create an issue about this in github with more details(screen shots)

    Are you using the official API’s for Spotify, etc or something like a headless browser for streaming?

    Nice job, I can’t imagine making something with this level of finish when I was in high school.

      nope this only gets the metadata such as the cover art from spotify and the music is from youtube music thank you so much!

    Very nice. You could throw this on a Spotify Car thing.

    Would love to see this land on a Pi Zero 2 inside a husked out iPod classic and a skinable UI to boot.

    @gvy_dvpont (@dupontgu ?), did this a few years ago back with a Pi Zero one, but I believe the project has suffered a bit from hardware compatibility decay.

    Cool...

        Are you suggesting that saying that a project is cool violates the HN guidelines? If so, please explain.

          I don't know the original comment's intent, but adding "..." at the end of your message is now considered by some as rude:

            Just because someone is confident about their own weird interpretation of something on the Internet does not make it true.

            I (and lot of people I know) use elipsis in writing all the time... usually to indicate a pause or change of direction from the previous thought. If I am in a hurry to get technical details down in text and off to some team, worrying about 100% correct proper writing style is time and luxury that I almost NEVER have.

            And besides, unless you work in a law office or something, email is NOT a formal communications method. Grammar and spelling should be within acceptable limits but not a deal-breaker. Otherwise you'd be skating near the principle of judging a book by its cover which would be very un-woke.

              Agreed. Though in the case of “cool…” there is precedent. For example, John Oliver says it sarcastically¹ with some regularity. Well, he can’t say the ellipsis, but it’s how I’d have written it.

              Either way, I’m agreeing with you. People also think that putting a period at the end of a text message is rude², which is bonkers to me³. Soon we won’t be able to use any punctuation without it being considered dismissive⁴.

              ³ I do it all the time. People get used to it and learn it’s just how I write.

              ⁴ Yes, that’s a slippery slope fallacy. I’m employing it for comedic effect, not as a real complaint of “kids these days”.

        • selykg 2 hours ago

          The ... can be read as sounding very dismissive.

          But also, it really didn't add anything to the discussion even if that wasn't the intention. Hence the second point I added from the guidelines. So, I see two potential areas of improvement.

            OP seems to be Japanese, so the ellipsis is unlikely to be meant as dismissive.

            Getting all guideliney on fluffy positive comments mostly defeats the purpose of getting all guideliney - the billowing clouds of meta that tends to generate are worse (guideline-worse, no less!) than the fluffy comment itself.

            • selykg an hour ago

              Possibly, but "Cool..." is hardly adding any value, whatsoever. In this case the poster should've simply said nothing unless they had something of value to say. This is sort of the second point I was quoting. There are a number of points in the guidelines that try to get people to add value to the conversation.

              > the billowing clouds of meta that tends to generate are worse (guideline-worse, no less!) than the fluffy comment itself.

              Well, at the end of the day you contributed to that with your own comment.

    • DevER-M 5 hours ago

      can you give me some feedback if you'd like!

      • ipaddr 3 hours ago

        I have the same comment. It looks cool and a fun project and useful.
