How to go online?

Hey @sasamicovic 

You'll have to use a keyboard shortcut for toggling offline mode, and the shortcut for that is Ctrl + Shift + O.

Let me know if you have any other troubles : )

[sasamicovic]

this does not work 😞

any other suggestion? 

[Sebasty]

@sasamicovic 

I'd suggest reinstall then. When did that start happening?

[sasamicovic]

Yesterday I installed latest version of Debian and fresh installation of Spotify, 

first tried with this method:

curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_7A3A762FAFD4A51F.gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor --yes -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/spotify.gpg
echo "deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install spotify-client

than uninstall and installed with snap
 

snap install spotify

 both version are in offline mode

@sasamicovic 

Thank you for this. Weird...

When you navigate to open.spotify.com, which is Spotify's web player, does that work for you?

I'd take a look if there's something unexpected in /etc/hosts, as well as ensuring the firewall isn't blocking it.
Do you use any proxies or vpn?

after few hours of trying I installed latest version of Ubuntu and it works without problem 🙂

thanks for your effort.
