Spotify lagging and freezing

[dezhik]

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.4

Spotify sometimes (about a third of the cases) takes minutes to start, loading playlist takes usually about 30 or 40 s and quite often results in the application becoming irresponsive. Favourite artists list almost always fails to load. Sometimes any action makes the application freeze.

How do I solve this problem? Thanks for advice.

Hey  @dezhik 

Is your Spotify a snap or apt?
I would suggest trying out the other one, if reinstalling doesn't do the trick either. 🙂

I tried both, there seems to be no difference.
