For those unaware, it's possible to use alternative clients for Spotify using a 3rd party daemon.

Spotify users, do you recommend spotify-easyrpm or the flatpak?
If you're using a premium account, you could also try to use the browser to control and spotifyd to play: https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd

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.

I used a Raspberry Pi and Arduino to fix/upgrade an old broken Jukebox
Spotifyd runs on Linux, can also be recognized by Spotify app as an output requires premium, not sure about touch screen compatability
- As a micro services expert, I know the fix for that: did you try sticking it into a systemd daemon that restarts it automatically when it crashes?

Mirroring screen to Chromecast with sound
Wow... I haven't used a ChromeCast in about 6 years. Ok, have you installed MKChromecast? Last Time I used a ChromeCast I was on Ubuntu, and followed instructions here however I see on MKChromecast page they have an instructional video if you hit the cast button and goto bottom of page.

how to cast screen to lg tv via WiFi without needing Chrome on Linux Fedora?
You can use VLC with the chromecast renderer (playback -> renderer) for that, I've also used https://github.com/muammar/mkchromecast in the past.

Stream from Ubuntu to Chromecast or Miracast
I need to stream a captured video input from my Ubuntu Kinetic to a smart TV or iPad sink via Chromecast/Miracast or whatever. Can this be done without VLC (not reliable)? Mkchromecast is not working in Kinetic yet, and GNOME Network Displays only casts physical monitors.
