My Question or Issue
when connected to VPN service (NordVPN, cable connection, 10mbps dl, 1 mbps ul, ping 17ms) a few errors have been observed.
1. all songs are opaque/gray and 'this content is not available' pops up when song is double clicked or play is pressed. 'Home' page is responding, and clicking on artist opens a new page.
2. logging out and logging back in produces a proxy/firewall error
no problems on windows (8.1, not sure about spotify version there, but latest) with same setup
$ spotify --version
Spotify version 1.1.55.498.gf9a83c60, Copyright (c) 2021, Spotify Ltd
similar issues were present on linux mint 19.3/4 mate, checked with nordvpn and its not on their side. all other things work normally with nordvpn
without VPN connection all works fine
edit: can not attach dum file due to the error: 'The file type (.spotify-dump) is not supported. Valid file types are: jpg, gif, pdf, png, zip, mp4.' when i try to upload
dump should show switching between vpn while it works then stops working, vpn gets turned off and it starts working again. i couldnt find anything that could pin point the moment of the switch
