Multiple bugs in Safari Player and app MacOS

Problems with Safari web-player:

• the player is consistently skipping songs in albums - the player will skips 2 songs ahead in some albums, even after quitting Safari and restarting
• tab crashes after being open for a longer period
• player stops playing sound - visual indicator continues to 'play' but sound is silent: have to stop the song, and restart it to hear sound again

NOTE: I have shuffle always switched off (even though different Spotify apps try to turn it back on 😡).

Problems with MacOS app:

• after a period of activity (few hours) Spotify player uses more and more memory
• entire computer (M1 MacBook Pro) becomes unresponsive after player is left open for extended time

This is on a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro with 16Gb of memory, a gigabit network connection connected via Google mesh (at least 500Mb per second speed), and no-one else using the Premium Family Plan at the same time.

All this is really irritating, and makes listening on the computer pretty much impossible.
