in the first few minutes after opening spotify on fedora linux(it happened on fedora 40 and still happening on fedora 41), it keeps giving notifications about crashing even that there is no problem, this is what the problem reporter says: spotify quit unexpectedly the application encountered a problem and could not continue, just that there is no name or version or anything else

I have no idea of what to do tbh

I had the same problem,I fixed it by blocking the notifications of SIGABRT

1. Open in text editor of your choice

sudo nano /etc/abrt/abrt.conf

2. Add the line

BlackList = spotify

3. Restart the service

sudo systemctl restart abrtd

This issue may be caused by a corrupted Flatpak installation. To resolve it, try reinstalling Spotify

1. Uninstall Spotify

flatpak uninstall com.spotify.Client

2. Reinstall Spotify

flatpak install flathub com.spotify.Client

3. Run Spotify

flatpak run com.spotify.Client

• If the issue persists, consider clearing Spotify's cache and configuration files. You can locate these files in ~/.var/app/com.spotify.Client/ and delete them before reinstalling.

• Ensure your system is up to date by running

sudo dnf update

to avoid any compatibility issues.
