Our article on SpotiWeb last week was originally intended to be about this app, but the lack of a 64-bit version put paid to that.įast forward one week, and a whole heap of commits later, and not only is the app rocking a 64-bit installer, but it’s also gained a chorus of new features.Īnd some of them are really worth checking out. If you’re in any way allergic to apps built using these open-source tools/platforms you still have time to run for the hills.

It’s called Spotify Web Player for Linux and, yup, it’s a Node.js/Electron application.

I know it already: you’re sick of hearing about Spotify on this site.īut be a champ and suck it up, cos I’m back with another app, one that lets the world’s most popular (citation needed) music streaming service play nice on Ubuntu. However, I verified this setting is indeed toggled to the on position, but I continue to see an error instead of the web player.You don’t need to tell me. Spotify keeps bringing me to this page and telling me to change the content settings to allow protected content. I also visited Jorge Castro's discussion of the differences between Chrome and Chromium and found the list of additional plugins to install to make Chromium have similar features to Chrome. I tried installing flash using this answer to fix the problem. I encountered a screen that looks like this when trying to access Spotify Web player. Lastly, I mostly use Chromium over Firefox due to some functionality problems with add-ons in Firefox. In addition, I use the free version of Spotify, which does not seem to be available for desktop, as noted by Anonymous in the poster's question in this thread. For privacy purposes, I prefer to use Chromium over Chrome. It appears the Spotify Web Player will not work in Chromium according to this thread. My question is related to a similar question about Spotify Web Player.
