Spotifyd
Have tried this several times but I find it drops off the network as a remote play device.
If you have a PC with the Spotify app running, that appears as a remote play device to other clients.
Otherwise I found ncspot to be more reliable than spotifyd: https://github.com/hrkfdn/ncspot/

Alternative Spotify clients?
ncspot is good, although it's maybe the client least likely to mesh with the whole "let a music player control lights in my room" mentality.

Picnic-TUI - Where Go and Groceries Create a Command-Line Feast
It was at this point I was getting a lot of joy out of writing command line applications. I had also just learnt of the existence of spotify-tui and wanted to explore more I could build such applications. So building interfaces for APIs felt like a good way to try this out.

If you are handy with a terminal, spotify-tui is my favorite Spotify controller I’ve ever used. No bullshit at all.

People who use the terminal all the time. What are you up to?
I switched to linux recently and iam loving it the speed and CLI tools that linux provides are amazing you can do anything imaginable in the terminal i use Spotify in the terminal navigate very very fast using auto-jump and its just easier than navigating all those uis and using the keyboard for everything is way faster and easier on your hand than the mouse and keyboard combination especially if you use a window manager

Is it possible to send messages to other Kali Linux systems via the terminal?
For example, there's a couple reddit clients, YouTube viewers, Spotify clients and many many more.

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 there.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ncspot and spotify-tui you can also consider the following projects:
spotifyd - A spotify daemon
spotube - 🎧 Open source Spotify client that doesn't require Premium nor uses Electron! Available for both desktop & mobile!
polybar - A fast and easy-to-use status bar
nord - An arctic, north-bluish color palette.
librespot - Open Source Spotify client library
dribbblish-dynamic-theme - A mod of Dribbblish theme for Spicetify with support for light/dark modes and album art based colors.
cava - Cross-platform Audio Visualizer
playerctl - 🎧 mpris media player command-line controller for vlc, mpv, RhythmBox, web browsers, cmus, mpd, spotify and others.
