  • Trying to make e ink device with Linux. Kind of lost
    If you want to run Spotify on a Raspberry (or PinePhone or some other device), there’s Spot, which is great, but kinda heavy and slow. There’s Spotify-qt which is faster, requires messing with Spotify developer dashboard, and UI doesn’t fit on small screens. Spotify-qt is itself based on Spotify-tui which runs in the terminal (pretty cool IMO). And a bare client/daemon is spotifyd. So you have quite a few choices... Source: over 1 year ago
  • Flatpak Spotify vs Tab in Firefox browser
    Would like to add that you can also use clients such as spotify-qt and Spotify TUI to control said "device". There's also Spot and psst that are standalone (librespot not required but no Connect functionality). Source: over 1 year ago
  • Dear Spotify. Can we just get table of songs?
    I have been using spotify-qt[1] lately. It's quite close to the original client from more than 10 years ago. 1. https://github.com/kraxarn/spotify-qt. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
  • linux good windows bad
    You could use an an unofficial client, for example: - Spot (GTK, can stream directly) - spotify-qt (QT, just a Spotify connect frontend, so you need something like spotifyd running) - spotify-tui (terminal, again just a Spotify connect frontend) - spotifyd (daemon that is controlled via Spotify connect).
