Seems cool. This project gives me some last.fm vibes. Do people still use last.fm? I used to be a big user of Last.fm back in the day, but just slowly lost my interest to make sure my Last.fm "scrobbler" was always running. Havent thought about that site in years. I tried signing up with Spotify, but after accepting the authorization on Spotify's side, I was redirected back to digs.fm but not signed in. Now when I click "Continue with Spotify", the page just refreshes without logging me in because I've already accepted the Spotify authorization.

Ugh, a friend also reported this to me but I couldn't reproduce it. Mind letting me know what browser you're using? If you don't want to disclose, feel free to email me at [redacted]. Thanks for reporting this. P.S. I'll post a comment regarding comparing to Last.fm soon :)

  Just using up-to-date Chrome. I see the network request where I get redirected to "https://digs.fm/users/auth/spotify/callback https://digs.fm/users/auth/spotify/callback" with a code and state. It returns a `Set-Cookie`, but I see my next request to the digs.fm homepage has another `Set-Cookie`. Unsure if you are just re-generating session IDs on every request or if the session data from the callback is being overwritten when I hit the homepage again.

  Might it be something to do with how your account is registered with Spotify? Mine was signed up for with Facebook (ugh) and I'm seeing that bug.

  I have the same issue. Firefox, Windows 10; also Firefox, macOS. I don't see myself in the New Users list on the main page. Perhaps it's completing the authorization on Spotify's end, but not creating the user account on the Digs end?

    Sorry for that, I found the root cause, unfortunately it'll be a bit before that's fixed, I guess (depends on action on behalf of Spotify).

  Question from a 10+year last.fm user: how does last.fm stay afloat? I have to assume that the vast majority of users are like me and mostly in it just to have a scrobbling server endpoint. It's been years since last.fm had the radio/streaming components for advertising revenue, and I have no idea what percentage of your userbase pays for the Pro subscription.
