In Linux we have had a bit of bad luck with Spotify seeing how it has happened with many other projects that focus their efforts on improving their clients for Windows, Android, iOS and forgetting other platforms with fewer users. Well, that's why we have seen a somewhat outdated interface of the app that embodies the Spotify client for the Linux desktop with a development that also left something to be desired in terms of operation. Well, this is over or at least it's going to get better ...
Now from Sweden they give us an early Christmas gift with a better client from Spotify for Linux that we already have available for all those who love music and this platform from which we can access content both for free (at the expense of ads) and also with premium accounts without these ads that are sometimes annoying. And in exchange for a few euros we can have all the music that we imagine from well-known and not-so-well-known artists.
The new app works perfectly and its interface is more current, it has already been tested on Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Solus, openSUSE, Manjaro, and Debian. We also have it in a more universal container that can work in any distribution, instead of being distributed in different types of packages as is the case with other applications. That also cuts down on the work for developers who only have to maintain one package type and not multiple of them.
The developers themselves have reported that having a snap Now all users can enjoy Spotify from the Linux ecosystem and have the latest version of this leading app regardless of the type of distribution we have. With this new app, the sound quality is very good, the interface is quite good, and it has all the features offered in the main version of Spotify, such as playlists, videos, podcasts, friends' activities, etc.
