Spotify CEO Daniel Ek tells investors Apple's DMA rules are a 'farce'
It is shitty they killed libspotify, but it isn't hard to reverse engineer the way the app communicates with the backend, this has already happened in the form of https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot as an example.
And if Apples ecosystem wasn't so locked down I could write a HomePod client using librespot and Daniel Ek could get however mad he wants about it.

Whole home sync'd rpi audio w plex, spotify, airplay
You want SnapCast. You'd run snapserver on your Linux box and snapclient on your Pi's. Snapserver has support for Airplay (via shairport-sync) and Spotify (via librespot). I recommend using MPD for your music library, as I don't think PlexAmp can output audio in a way that's useful for snapserver.

Trying to cross compile spotify for my remote vacuum cleaner
For the last tow days I'm trying to compile librespot for my Xiaomi Mop PRO STYJ02YM Vacuum Cleaner. Vacuum uses TinaLinux which uses OpenWRT under the hood. The platform is armv7.

Spot (Native Spotify client for GNOME) seems unmaintained.
Also, the base library doing the hard work of communicating with the proprietary Spotify service is still very healthy, since April 2015. I would say that is a pretty decent time no?

Whole Home Audio - Design Help
To replace it, I've purchased in-ceiling speakers and a Control 4 Amp (C4-16AMP3-B) which I can control via the network. I plan on using shareport-sync for AirPlay and librespot for spotify as the sources to play music. 90% of the use for my whole home audio is for music.
