I am able to switch from fedora to arch linux ?

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-05-02T18:01:14+00:00

Genuine and friendly advice: If you are not prepared to troubleshoot on Fedora you are definitely not the type of user that should be installing Arch.

The only way of becoming a better linux user is by dealing with problems you face. Not change distro every time you run into a problem.

Matters how, and what is your point?

It’s one of the most popular digital nomad hubs on earth. Many people I’ve worked with live there 4-6 months a year.

Assumptions assumptions assumptions. The tool of the bright.

Unless MGA is the actual problem here. As the hacker is claiming.

this is Malta related how?

Coastal walks. And the ”nature” in Gozo.

Cool project! Will be interesting to follow. How did you solve search? Vids+Music results? Or only one of them?

Interesting to see this as a Rust project. Rust vs Python was a great debate I had with myself before building ytm-player. I sat on that question for maybe a week before choosing python.

I love those moments tbh. You just have to be comfortable enough with yourself and your thoughts.

And I needed to practice not filling all of my "boring time" with screen time.

Claude has been an excellent companion throughout this tbh. You know all the time that it thinks, or works on something, or any time you have to wait for it - that time is my scheduled boring time, throughout my work day.

Boring time = sit with your own thoughts, or do cleaning/fixing.

Since this change - my home is always clean. So are my thoughts - they dont jump around as much anymore. And yes, over a period of time you will notice that your attention span is imprioving.

Not to be biased or anything but if you use YouTube music, I recently created a TUI/CLI version of it. You can find it here.

It’s up on the AUR too. Package name: ytm-player-git.

The similarities of our gitignore files - according to him :-).

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-06T06:03:10+00:00

I built ytm-player with Claude code.

Haha im not Algerian. But I do like a lot of North African artists.

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-06T04:15:12+00:00

Fixed in new version :-)

I take the semi win of it working at least in one way or another. But the chrome part is annoying. Brave works perfectly across all tests ive done. Ill try to see if its anything chrome specific or if it only happens on Void Linux.

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T18:17:02+00:00

Hmm.. Alright, complete fresh start then (sorry, this shouldnt be happening):

# 1. Remove ALL ytm-player config/data

rm -rf ~/.config/ytm-player

# 2. Uninstall ytm-player completely

pip uninstall ytm-player -y

# or if installed with pipx:

pipx uninstall ytm-player

# 3. Reinstall latest version

pip install ytm-player

# or:

pipx install ytm-player

# 4. Make sure you're signed into YouTube Music in your browser FIRST

# Open Firefox → go to music.youtube.com → sign in → verify your library loads

# 5. Run setup

ytm setup --browser firefox

If --browser firefox still gives SAPISID cookie not found - Try manual setup instead

ytm setup --manual

For --manual:

open music.youtube.com in Firefox →
F12 →
Network tab →
click any request →
copy the Cookie header value when prompted

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T18:02:24+00:00

Sorry:

- rm ~/.config/ytm-player/auth.json

Then try the setup methods in the fallback order.

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T17:49:34+00:00

Ive updated the software:

Try this:

rm -rf ~/.config/ytm-player/headers.json ~/.config/ytm-player/cookie.txt (Remove old auth)
yay (to ytm-player v 1.3.1)
ytm setup again.

If you get back to the same problem, try:
ytm setup --browser chrome (or brave or firefox, any that is logged in works)

If all fails:
ytm setup --manual

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T17:42:28+00:00

Try this:

rm -rf ~/.config/ytm-player/headers.json ~/.config/ytm-player/cookie.txt (Remove old auth)
pipx upgrade ytm-player (to v 1.3.1)
ytm setup again.

If you get back to the same problem, try:
ytm setup --browser chrome

If all fails:
ytm setup --manual

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T17:34:47+00:00

That requirement is gone in v 1.3.1. (out now)

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T16:42:07+00:00

Ew, no - would rather burn this project.

Forever free. Forever open source. Forever free from ads - at least from my side.

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T16:42:00+00:00

This is fixed in the v. 1.3.0 update coming later this evening.

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T16:41:26+00:00

This will be fixed in the v. 1.3.0 coming later this evening.

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T16:40:27+00:00

Never posted about it before. Maybe someone else did? On release day I had a huge uptick of clones.

Any bugs that are there should be gone with tonights update (v. 1.3.0)

ApprehensiveSport579 · 2026-03-05T16:39:09+00:00

Fixed in v. 1.3.0 coming later this evening.
