Spotify on Zorin OS18

Quick question. Does anyone else, who uses the Spotify app, have a blue bar at the top that is very much like Windows XP?

Do You use the Flatpak Version or .deb from Spotify directly?

On Snap version, I don't have the thing you say.

Flatpak

Then, I would suggest to try the .deb Package that Steam offers. I already linked it. Look there for ''Debian/Ubuntu''. But uninstall the Flatpak Version first.

I suggest the deb or snap package, as they are supported by Spotify.

I use the flatpak; no blue bar.

I also use Spotify with Zorin 18 as a Flatpak, and I have the blue bar too

Yes, flatpak version of spotify is not even official and it's only an community package. Flatpak market works so weirdly by making pull requests to Github Repository. So anyone can make apps and only one developer allows your app to be on flatpak or not based on his mood. I really dislike flatpak because of that.
