The developer refused to add lyrics support, supporting their point with a response from ChatGPT.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Chatgpt:

"He brings up some points that tap into how legal responsibility is often framed in terms of “user-provided content” in various platforms and tools. Let's break down the key legal and technical considerations involved in displaying user-supplied lyrics files in a music player app like Kew:

#188. Diabolical. The feature was added later anyway, but still.

Well, I hope you don't mean I was being diabolical as I am just trying to stay out of trouble.

Lyric support was added as soon as the legal picture cleared.

Yes not optimal, but I couldn't find a clear answer by other means.

It's actually funny how hardcore chatgpt was advising me not to do it. Page after page of arguments.
