Authentication broken?

• sxm-client version: 0.2.8
• Python version: 3.8
• Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04

Authentication seems to be broken?

I have the same issue, everything was working fine and it only started happening to me last week. Did you find a resolution for this?

[asingletary]

Nope, never resolved. I haven't had any success since late-2021.

I also observe this issue on Ubuntu. Not on macOS

Edit: Works now on my Ubuntu system. I wonder if it's just a quirk of how SXM handles authentication

I also have this issue. I notice there is no responses so I assume this project is dead and orphaned?

This happens every once in a while and appears to be a feature from SXM. There may not be much that can be done about this particular issue.
