If you followed the instructions on https://www.spotify.com/download/linux/ and installed from Ubuntu Software or snap, it should be located at /snap/bin/spotify. If you installed the debian package, it should be located at /usr/bin/spotify. Both /snap/bin and /usr/bin should be in your $PATH though, so just typing spotify should be enough.

I went to setup Split Tunneling using LINUX arch Cachy OS and found the Spotify-Launcher app and installed it and was completely lost on finding the location to include in the exluded VPN to save bandwidth on the VPN netwrok, round out while working on it a little later that it natively exludes sitself from the VPN tunnel so dead not have to do it at all. Very strange app but it does work well on Cachy OS, thank you Spotify, but the location and run times and such is a little bizarre. Bottom Line was thankful there was a good solid Spotify for LINUX Arch Distros. Thanks
