Not today but we're planning some radical changes to the music data we rely upon which should open it up to Apple Music, Deezer and beyond!

Interesting! I've never actually thought about that! Very clever! If it was launched from the alarm it could start the show with "Gooood morning, looks like it's going to be <insert weather> and <insert some info abo

Ahh so fake ads! That'd be neat actually! Going to work on that over the weekend :) TY

Chromecast support is a gigantic pain to implement! But I 100% agree it'd be excellent to have it! Maybe it's gotten easier since I last checked in on it

The bottom of the settings screen has a 'buy me a coffee' link but I'm equally happy if you're using it and enjoying it! Or if you have feature requests please send them my way! Those are worth an awful lot :)

This is literally my dream for the service. A personal GTA radio station. I'm entirely all ears if you have any suggestions on how to pull that off!

The app has a built-in link to 'Buy me a coffee' (which actually does cover my coffee expenses along with some of the hosting costs!) I'm quite keen to get a bigger community of people contributing ideas and maybe give me the

Damn it! Thought I'd fixed this. Back to that micro service I go :( Thanks for using and for the bug report!

I've got plans to build my own "open music API" that'll make whatever service you use just an adaptor that Rad can tap into. At the moment Radiant is very embedded in Spotify's API ecosystem due to a few key feature

If anyone is interested in learning more, suggesting stuff or getting support etc I've set up a discord that I've done a frankly appalling job of promoting -> https://discord.gg/4YgkhAgfJ5

Also having something I'm passionate about gives me a lot of purpose. I've obviously up-skilled tremendously building (and then rebuilding it for cross-platform) but above all else, it's a lot of fun to build and it's so

Yep. That's not good... thanks for the offer, if you could shoot over an email to rad@getradiant.app and I'll get whatever broken fixed this weekend and released by Monday.

The major advancements in text-to-speech we've since in the last year have me planning on revamping Rad's voice (maybe basing it on Tom Sellek...who knows) but the fact we've come this far has really opened a world of opportu

I know it's a bit of a laundry list. Everything there is required to use the Spotify API the way I needed to. Playlist read/write so it can add songs you like to the 'Liked on Radiant on Spotify', Profile to set your loc

Weird its in french. Thats all controlled by Spotify which suggests your Spotify is set to french. Might be worth checking to see if your Spotify is being accessed anywhere else...

Yep, the idea is that the stream of music it plays is both time appropriate and always relatively fresh. You can tune its selection algo too with the thumbs up or down (long pressing on either for more fine controls). Web is due out in the

That's exactly what is coming next for it! A fully-fledged web app. It's actually built using web tech so it's an easy port. Just need to rebuild some of the native bits for web (ohh I might get to use wasm!) but once that&#x

Auto-define exports of native properties for a child widget. This should be posted as an issue on the Svelte core repo. It would save a ton of time building components! Now that Kit 1.0 is out the door the team can turn their attention back

This coming from a company that decimates its long-standing developer ecosystem at every available opportunity under the guise of security and licensing restrictions. At least Apple lets people build apps for its platform in a relatively op

Recently picked up one in the fire sale and did a bit of digging to see where root access and custom apps were at for it. As of a couple of days ago, someone has doom running on it (because of course) and a basic custom web app running too.

This would be excellent as part of a hybrid solution. Dynamically switching between standard ground to air and satellite to accommodate availability and bandwidth constraints.

Where they got stung is the use of FFmpeg to transcode files. YouTube actually return an "InnerTube" key in the page response that can just be used to ask for the mp4 file of a video. It's essentially exactly what the browser

Can attest to this personally and have heard first-hand accounts of this from others. Either hire in-house or go with a reference when thinking about outsourcing HR services.

Others have been suggesting Libspotify still works for legacy embedded device reasons... https://github.com/mopidy/libspotify-archive seems to have Android and iOS builds.

Permanent. Spotify doesn't want apps streaming music through anything other than Spotify's own walled experience for a number of seemingly financial reasons others have highlighted here.

There were tons of unofficial clients, mostly open source efforts as Spotify didn't allow for any monetizable components in apps so it never made much sense to build a business off the back of it.
