[Solved] Linux app not syncing liked songs

[utomsig]

Songs that i liked stopped showing up in the linux app. What worked was to close spotify and then remove the files in:

    ~/snap/spotify/current/.config/spotify/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME-user

I removed all of them, but that may not be necessary. 

I previously tried to uninstall the spotify snap:

     sudo snap remove spotify && sudo forget spotify && sudo snap install spotify

But that changed nothing, I guess that the config files was left intact.

I also tried to make my linux machine play a newly liked song, via my android phone. But the linux app didn't play it, nothing was played.

Thanks for the linux app, I'm a heavy user!

This did not work for me, but I did find a simpler trick that did. 

I added a new liked song, then went to another device and removed that song.  After that, it picked up all the changes and got in sync again.

Can confirm adding song on PC app and them removing it on Mobile app forced PC app to sync 😉

Same here, the solution from these commends above worked for me too. Why is this marked as solved as its clearly a bug?

How can it be that after more than 5 years the bug still exists? And I pay money for that?

This helped me too!
Although I'm running Manjaro (Arch-based) and had Spotify installed via flathub, so the paths were a little different:

~/.var/app/com.spotify.Client/cache/Users/{username}-user

the consumer linux era is close and still after 5 years no one fixed this bug
