Ferdium, alternative Linux à Spotify Desktop

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

Ferdium is not a direct replacement for Spotify Desktop, but it can work if you're comfortable using web apps. It wraps the Spotify web player in a dedicated window, so you get background playback and account sync as long as you're online. Offline playback isn't supported since it relies on the browser. Performance is heavier than native apps due to Electron, but keyboard shortcuts and dark mode help usability. Best for users who want to centralize services like Slack, Gmail, and Spotify in one window and don’t rely on offline listening.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

  • Access to Spotify's full streaming catalog via embedded browser
  • User account and playlist sync through Spotify's web interface
  • Background playback when the app is open
  • Cross-device sync via Spotify account login
  • Available on Linux with native packaging (Flatpak, DEB, RPM)

Ce qui change

  • No offline playback — requires internet connection
  • Heavier RAM and CPU usage compared to Spotify Desktop
  • Lacks native Linux look and feel; UI reflects web version
  • Depends on community-maintained 'recipes' for service integration
  • Missing some desktop integrations like media keys (unless manually configured)

Ouvrir vos fichiers Spotify Desktop

Ferdium does not interact with local files the way Spotify Desktop does, so there's no support for opening or exporting local music files. Spotify Desktop manages cache and local storage separately, and Ferdium doesn't access that data. If you use Spotify's local files feature, Ferdium won't support it. Your playlists and library are cloud-based and will sync as long as you're logged into Spotify, but offline downloads are unavailable.

Questions fréquentes

Can Ferdium play Spotify offline?

No. Ferdium uses the Spotify web player, which requires an active internet connection. Offline playback is not supported, even with a Premium account.

Does Ferdium support media keys on Linux?

Not out of the box. Media key support depends on your desktop environment and may require third-party tools like playerctl to work reliably.

Is Ferdium safe for Spotify account use?

Yes. Ferdium doesn't store your credentials — it acts as a browser wrapper. You log in directly to Spotify's site, so your data remains secure.
