## What I'd like help with

I watched this video and want to try it. Walk me through it one step at a time, and check the official links below before giving exact commands, since they change.

## In plain English

Spotifast is a free, open source Spotify app for your computer that's way lighter than the real one, with Winamp skins and MilkDrop visuals. Desktop only (Mac, Windows, Linux), and you need Spotify Premium to play music. Made by Carmine, who also made ZapFast for WhatsApp. Both are unofficial, and ZapFast's own page warns WhatsApp could suspend your account. A few antivirus engines flagged Spotifast; the maker says those are false positives. Skins from the Winamp Skin Museum (skins.webamp.org). Which skin are you putting on first? spotifast.rocks
