This code raises the TypeError mentionned above. I'm not sure if it is my fault or not, I've unlikely overwritten a built-in feature. Here's the full exception message:

Exception ignored in: <function Spotify.del at 0x000001A55C03F060>
Traceback (most recent call last):

What I attempted:

Changing Spotipy versions (2.22.0)
Checking requests.session (returned None)

Damn, thanks for the heads-up

[aymather]

Did we ever figure out why this is happening/what to do? I hate seeing this in the logs every time i run a script.

[dieser-niko]

Tbh I didn't really read the issue because of the formatting. But I've seen this error before in another issue. Are you using conda by any chance?

Edit: found the (still open) issue: #918

[dieser-niko]

@Phantom-Cass @aymather is this bug still happening? I'd like to get it sorted out.

[dieser-niko]

I guess not. Closing as there is no activity.
