    That is interesting. Now I am going to have to run Wireshark and see if anything is going on with mine.

    Shame if so, it is the most feature rich music player.

      You might also check to see if it has already downloaded any .so files. (These are executable code, like Windows DLLs.) I found one in $HOME/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/ when I used it a few years ago, but recent versions may store them elsewhere or do it conditionally.

        I looked and I do not see anything like that. Who packaged your version I wonder.

          The blob wasn’t packaged with the application. Clementine downloaded the blob after installation. It’s possible that it doesn’t do this automatically any more, or does it under different conditions. I have no reason to investigate further, since I no longer use it.

            I have the same home directory for 20+ years and have been running Clementine since it was released on Fedora. I have no blobs or .so files.

            Cool. I guess I was wondering if the package maintainer had set a configuration to pull those in automatically, or if Clementine was designed to do that. But in any case, thanks for the reply.

        I have no spotifyblob directory in my ~/.config/Clementine. Just Clementine.conf, clementine.db, jamendo.db and an albumcovers directory
