0.5.0 adds MilkDrop, a better queue, playback history, and multi-select. The macOS build is not notarized yet. Follow the first-open steps on the download page.

New

  • MilkDrop by @crmne. Run it in its own window, make it fullscreen, and switch between thousands of presets. It is not included in the Windows on ARM build.

  • A better queue by @crmne. It updates immediately, survives restarts, and can be cleared or saved as a playlist. Song radio now opens with its queue visible. Thanks @shaded00. (#93)

  • Recent now includes Spotify history and songs played in Fastpotify. By @zHeuzy2 and @crmne. Thanks @penguin221. (#106, #113)

  • Multi-select by @crmne. Ctrl-click or Cmd-click selects songs. Shift-click selects a range. Thanks @penguin221. (#105)

  • Fastpotify remembers the last song and position. By @koels. (#98)

Fixed

  • Artwork no longer makes the window flash. By @crmne; thanks @Ianuarius. (#129)
  • Browser sign-in works when Windows cannot find powershell.exe. By @crmne; thanks @Nippey. (#107)
  • The macOS first-open command works on macOS 27. By @crmne; thanks @jorisw. (#126)
  • The Winamp mini player comes back out of the Dock instead of freezing the app. By @iDiegoNL and @crmne; thanks @saipreetham99. (#141, #167)
  • Now Playing artwork loads from Fastpotify's disk cache instead of making another network request. By @iDiegoNL and @crmne. (#117)
  • Playing a plain track clears stale playlist and album context from the sidebar. By @goerll and @crmne. (#121)
  • Spotify audio-key refusals stop with a clear error instead of skipping through the queue. By @crmne, based on an upstream librespot fix by Kristoffer Haugland; thanks @RyuuseiAkira. (#139)
  • Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fallback fonts follow the reader's region. By @chagel and @crmne. (#169)
  • The Nix package builds again. By @mixedCase and @crmne. (#116)
  • Source installation instructions now cover Fedora and use a locked Cargo install. By @chinifabio and @crmne. (#138)

Thanks
