I created a scraper that compiles Spotify playlists for the most popular music subreddits, using the top weekly track submissions (basically any links to Spotify, Soundcloud or Youtube using $ARTIST - $TRACK in the title). The Spotify API is then used to search for the track and if found, adding it to a playlist. This runs once weekly and updates the same playlists, so if you're following one it won't be removed.

Happy to hear any comments and feedback!

Started using and sharing. Cheers

For your code you might want to check out https://github.com/Delgan/loguru for logging rather than print statements.

What is the meaning of try/except 1 here https://github.com/jameslawlor/reddit2spotifybot/blob/master... (line 24)?
