I've been using Spot[0], which is another Rust Spotify client using GTK.

And for those wanting a ncurse client, there is ncspot [0] which is quite stable and complete.

    I never really got into Spotify because I found the UI so confusing, clearly designed for "engagement" instead of usability.

    But this is perfect:

    - search for the name of an album, press enter and voilà it plays the album in order like I expect

    - Playback takes 1% CPU and 0.1% of RAM

    - vim-ish bindings

    - It even works with physical play/pause/next... keys on my keyboard

    Thank you!
