Linux xubuntu, ive been going in circles trying to figure this out ./playit-linux-amd64 results in INFO playitd::daemon: Starting playitd socket_path=None secret_path=Some(“/home/name/.config/playit_gg/playit.toml”) version=1.0.2
playitd error: IPC error: Failed to bind to socket: Permission denied (os error 13) i cannot for the life of me figure out how or why, ( i know this is a vague question but i ran out of options)

There should be other log statements showing how to add your user to the “playit” user group and refresh permissions.

The commands

# The socket is restricted to the playit group. Add your user to that group:
sudo usermod -aG playit $USER

# Then refresh group membership for this shell:
newgrp playit

# After that, run:
playit
