this feature was already implemented on windows a long time ago (as seen here: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Implemented-Ideas/Close-Button-Closes-Spotify-Windows/idi-p/1297 )
when can we have this for linux?
Hey! As we don't officially support Linux, it's hard to say if and when we will implement new features.
It is already implemented, but you need to use version 1.0.x of Spotify that is only in the testing repository, so far.
Follow the instructions on https://www.spotify.com/download/linux/ but replace stable with testing, like this:
# 1. Add the Spotify repository signing key to be able to verify downloaded packages sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys BBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886 # 2. Add the Spotify repository echo deb http://repository.spotify.com testing non-free | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list # 3. Update list of available packages sudo apt-get update # 4. Install Spotify sudo apt-get install spotify-client
Hi!
I'm using a tiling window manager (i3) on Linux. In my case, there is no close button. The app doesn't react to CTRL+W, CTRL+Q, ALT+F4 or have a "Quit" option in the login menu.
Is there any intended way to quit other than clicking the (non-existent) close button ? Sending the process a SIGTERM seems to be a bit too much.
Thanks!
Hey there you, Yeah, you! 😁 Welcome - we're glad you joined the Spotify Community! While you here, let's have a fun game…
