Last week, CuteSpot broke, along with all other applications using libspotify, as Spotify changed something that prevents it retrieving user playlists. It seems a fix for this is using the Spotify Web API to retrieve the playlists and then use libspotify itself to play the songs: see this bug report discussion for more details. Would it be possibly to implement this sort of fix in CuteSpot?
(Using the Android client is apparently not an option, because sound playback is apparently broken in it on Sailfish X.)

I'm using Spotify Android client on Sailfish X and I didn't notice any problems with audio playback, is it something that occured in 2.2.0? My version is 2.1.4.14.

So I just checked it and at least on my XperiaX/2.2.0 Cutespot works just like before. So what gives?

On my Xperia X CuteSpot shows no playlists at all, while searching for songs and albums and playing them works fine.

AH, then it makes sense... I don't us playlists at all, have no clue even how to make a playlist!
I listen to albums, you know; from the first track to the last track, like they were made to be listened.

Private playlists are retrievable for the present client and requires the playlist-read-private degree to have been approved by the client. Note that this degree alone won't return community oriented playlists, despite the fact that they are constantly private.
