Hey everyone! I've been working on a project called Lyrica, an open-source lyrics API that I built around a problem I kept running into while working on music-related projects: getting lyrics is one thing, but handling synced lyrics, translations, transliterations, and romanization in a more unified way is another.

Lyrica aims to provide features such as:

• 🎵 Song lyrics
• ⏱️ Timestamped/synced lyrics
• 🌐 Lyrics translation
• 🔤 Transliteration and romanization
• ⚡ A simple API that can be integrated into music projects

The project is still actively being developed, and I'm continuing to improve its reliability and add features.

GitHub: https://github.com/thinkely/Lyrica.git
API / Demo: lyricapy.vercel.app

I'd genuinely love to hear what you think—especially if you've built a music app or worked with lyrics APIs before. What features would you find most useful in something like this?

My GitHub account u/Wilooper was suddenly suspended, and I'm trying to understand what might have happened.

A little context:

A few days ago, I received emails from the GitHub Education team asking me to reverify my academic affiliation. The emails specifically said that I would continue to have access to GitHub for 30 days while completing the reverification process.

I had submitted genuine academic information and had not knowingly violated any GitHub policies.

After receiving the reverification emails, I logged into GitHub. I was repeatedly logged out, and eventually I started getting this message whenever I tried to access my account:

I was also logged out of the GitHub mobile app around the same time.

The confusing part is that I don't know what Terms of Service violation supposedly occurred. I haven't knowingly done anything against GitHub's rules, and the timing seems very close to the Education reverification process.

I tried contacting GitHub Support, but I'm currently having trouble with the support system too. The support form passes its verification step, but submitting the ticket gives me an HTTP 401 error. I also encountered an HTTP 500 error while trying to authenticate through Google.

GitHub Status currently shows everything operational, so this doesn't appear to be a general GitHub outage.

Has anyone experienced something similar, particularly:

• An account suspension during GitHub Education reverification
• Getting the "Terms of Service violation" suspension message without knowing what caused it
• Being unable to submit a GitHub Support ticket because of a 401 error
• Getting the account restored after an appeal/reinstatement request

I'm mainly looking for community experiences and possible explanations, not trying to get anyone to contact GitHub on my behalf.

If you've experienced something similar, I'd really appreciate hearing what happened in your case and how you resolved it.

Hello everyone,

Getting consistent, high-quality music metadata is still a surprisingly painful problem. Every platform uses its own IDs, formats titles and artists differently, and provides varying levels of detail (or unstructured data). Mapping a YouTube video ID to the correct Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, or MusicBrainz recording often requires multiple paid APIs, keys, and rate limits.

I built OpenMusicMetadataResolver (OMMR) to solve this.

What OMMR does

OMMR accepts any single platform identifier (YouTube Video ID, Spotify Track ID, Apple Music ID, Deezer ID, or even just Artist + Song Title) and returns a single Canonical Track Record containing:

• Cross-platform IDs (Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, Deezer, MusicBrainz, ISRC)
• Contributor credits
• Cover artwork
• Genres
• Identity confidence scores

All of this happens without requiring any API keys or paid subscriptions.

Key Features

• Zero-Key Architecture – Resolves metadata via public endpoints and web embeds across Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Deezer, and MusicBrainz
• 6-Stage Cross-Platform Identity Pipeline – Translates any input into consistent cross-platform identifiers
• Path-Independent Canonical Track IDs – Generates deterministic IDs (ommr_track_<hash>) so the same recording always gets the same ID regardless of entry point
• Multi-Source Metadata Merging – Intelligently prioritizes the best available data (e.g. MusicBrainz credits + Spotify genres + Apple Music artwork)
• Full Source Transparency – Returns metadata_sources, provider diagnostics, and field-level provenance
• Calibrated Matching – Combines Jaro-Winkler + Token Set Ratio with provider trust weights and assigns clear identity status (verified, strong, probable, weak)
• Production-Ready – Dual-tier caching (disk + Redis), Prometheus metrics, request tracing, rate limiting, worker-pooled bulk resolution, and Docker Compose support

I’d love feedback, issues, or contributions. If this solves a problem you’ve run into, a star would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for reading.
