I made a bot last summer to generate and update weekly Spotify playlists from 100 or so music subreddits based on the top submissions of that week. Update operates entirely through a GitHub action so no resource spending.

I don’t often finish my side projects so was pretty happy to have something finally usable and shareable, it’s been fun showing friends!

This is awesome, I'm already using it. Thanks so much!

A few years ago a friend and I listened to one album a week from r/hiphopheads' Essential Albums List. It got me thinking about having an "Album club" like a book club. Each week the club's playlist would get updated with a new album or songs to listen to that week.

I may use this as some inspiration to make that.

I see in the repo you mention wanting to add support for archiving. I'd really like to see a sort of master playlist for a genre. Just keep adding the songs from each weekly playlist to the master genre playlist, then the "date added" field could be used for looking at the playlist historically. You lose duplicates this way, so maybe not the best archival strategy, but with the master playlist you could have hours of music instead of an hour.

Oh, this is great, I look forward to exploring some new genres with these playlists.

Super cool! It would be great if the description field had a link to the subreddit and a link to the master list.
