I finally finished a little convenience tool I made for fetching lyrics for your currently playing Spotify song, called Spotify Karaoke.

Currently I'm working on an Electron app for automatically importing/managing screenshots and recordings from your Nintendo Switch, off the SD card. It matches the file name IDs (Nintendo uses these seemingly random IDs for each game) with the actual game name, moves it into a custom folder structure, etc.

Loooooove the Spotify karaoke tool. I have to know the words to songs I listen to so I started a local Electron tool (https://github.com/bradydowling/spotifylyrics) like this some time ago but then abandoned it.

It's great that this is web based and can be used on a device that you're not listening on.

Thanks for building this! It infuriates me that they have a widget that does display the lyrics but keeps switching to random trivia every 5s. There's an open bug on spotify to have it always show lyrics but doesn't seem to receive any love.

I think Spotify joined forces with Genius. And that trivia is from Genius. Sometimes the trivia is good, but I would have loved a simple lyrics widget.
