I listen to Spotify on my work computer. In the last few weeks the fan always spins up when I try to play it, and I'm constantly having to reload the window for it to play anything. Playback will stop in the middle of a song sometimes.
open.spotify.com in Firefox on Windows 10. I disabled ublock. Same issue on work network and home.
I've never NOT had an issue with Spotify on desktop. They're trying way too hard to monitor when and where you're listening.
