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).
-
Rust audio library
You can also take a look at Psst. I use Symphonia for decoding and CPAL or CubeB for output. CubeB is a bit nicer.

Spotify running on FreeBSD
There's also this project, written in Rust, which is a great GUI Spotify client https://github.com/jpochyla/psst

Druid app for public transport data
There‘s a Spotify client, psst, which has an Async widget (with a Promise state struct) that works very well for loading states etc. That project has a bunch of other tidbits and interesting patterns for Druid, I learned a ton from the code.

ncspot is another amazing option if you're comfortable with the terminal.
