About Tidal Hi-Fi
Tidal Hi-Fi runs Tidal's web player inside Electron, adding Hi-Fi audio support through Widevine, according to the project description. The source lists High and Max audio quality settings, desktop notifications, custom theming, custom hotkeys, and integrations with MPRIS, Discord Rich Presence, and ListenBrainz. It also exposes an API for status, playback, and settings. The project is hosted on GitHub, where installation options include releases, Snap, Flatpak, the Arch Linux AUR, Nix, Solus, and building from source.
The source names some limits. The software needs a notification library such as libnotify or dunst to work properly. The Flatpak version of the Discord integration only works when both Discord and Tidal Hi-Fi are installed as Flatpaks. Album art in integrations is described as best-effort. The source does not state any pricing, and it does not list supported platforms beyond the Linux and macOS tags.
