I hear there is a way for this to work with non premium members however i have premium so im not going to be covering that here, also i had to swap between like 15 different "fixes" so idk if this all even works tbh, someone else try it.
follow this to start https://github.com/zotify-dev/zotify/blob/main/INSTALLATION.md
download and install this https://rustup.rs/
download this like the full code repo (and extract it) https://github.com/dspearson/librespot-auth
next we gonna get a bit tricky
open command prompt type "cd downloads"
then type "cd libre (then press tab to fill in the rest)"
type dir, if it still just says libre... repeat, "cd libre (tab)"
dir again, if now it has a buncha files continue
type "cargo build --release"
the ".\target\release\librespot-auth.exe"
it will ask you to open spotify and change the playback device to speaker
in the libre folder you will get a credentials json, open it in notepad
either ask chatgpt or do it yourself and make it look like this (literally, it might say auth_type or something, we dont care we just need the data after that and then to format it after this)
{
"username": "blahblahblahdon'teditme",
"type": "AUTHENTICATION_STORED_SPOTIFY_CREDENTIALS",
"credentials": "blahblahblahdon'teditme"
}
then do win + r -> %app_data% -> zotify -> paste the credentials in
open cmd type zotify + url of playlist or go to the zotify git to find more commands (first link)
sources of help, also check zotify git under the issues tab
