Spotify Desktop-ify

Open spotify URIs/web player links in the desktop app every time.

About

This redirects Spotify content links to the Desktop app. Click here to test.

• Auto-closes tab (if opened in a new tab)
• Doesn’t autoplay and interrupt your music
• Supports all content types (songs, playlists, concerts, podcasts…)
• Can still use open.spotify.com - only redirects direct content link-clicks
• Strips tracking ID in the link - for better privacy

Open source at https://github.com/vazbloke/spotify-desktop-ify
