Show HN: Tuisic – A simple TUI online music streaming application

Hi HN,

I built Tuisic, a terminal-based online music player.

It’s probably the first of its kind — a minimal CLI app where you can search, stream, and download music from multiple online platforms without ever touching a browser. No ads, no distractions.

+ Features: - Works with YouTube, SoundCloud, JioSaavn, Last.fm, ForestFM (YouTube Music coming) - Clean terminal UI built with FTXUI - Vim-like controls and keyboard shortcuts - Favorites list, easy sharing, and downloading - Optional MPRIS (DBus) support for `playerctl`, media keys, etc. - Lightweight and doesn't depend on Electron or a GUI

There's also a basic "daemon mode" (press `w`) for leaving it running in the background.

+ GitHub: https://github.com/Dark-Kernel/tuisic

+ AUR package: `tuisic-git`

Would love feedback or testing, especially from CLI lovers and Linux users. Contributions welcome — even better if you help bring Apple Music or Spotify support one day :)
