All my ducks seem to be in order and the correct configs in the right place. But i keep getting this message. As you can see the file exists. It is not empty, but systemctl cannot find it. Any help would be very very appreciated.

      If you just want it to auto-start at login, you could create a symlink from the .desktop file to ~/.config/autostart.

      Something like ln ~/.local/applications/spotify.desktop ~/.config/autostart (or ln /usr/share/applications/spotify.desktop ~/.config/autostart if that’s where it installed to).

      I believe most DE’s will pick this up automatically.

        Spotifyd is a Spotify daemon, not an user application. It makes perfect sense to run as a service. Though personally I would run it as a user service instead of a system service.

          Ahh I thought they were just making a service for the normal spotify application, yeah in that case it makes sense to use a service. Didn’t know spotifyd is something else

        KDE also has an easy GUI to configure this. It’s called autostart in the settings app.
