Is there a working Spotify downloader that actually downloads from Spotify?

Seems they recently changed something on Spotify and all the tools I’ve tried fail now. And DownOnSpot which seems promising has received a cease and desist letter and got taken down. What do you people use? I want something that actually fetches the audio from Spotify, not just rip it from YouTube. And it has to work as of now. Does the latest commit from DownOnSpot work? Back when I tested it a few weeks ago it failed due to some API changes. Are there other tools floating around?

Spotydown.media worked for me, but sometimes it gets stuff so wildly wrong that i am guessing he pulls the stuff from another library and takes the closest match for the name. Doesnt seem to be YouTube though, never had intros, outros or music video noises

YouTube Music has all the album versions even though some of them are hidden from normal YouTube search

I used a program called Spotiflyer which also pulled from questionable sources. I was downloading a playlist to play at a party and I got the Plankton (from Spongebob) AI cover of “Dear Maria” which absolutely cracked me up when I found it.
