From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Where is the service file located on your system?
Did you create it with
sudo systemctl edit --force --full
, or did you use a text editor (or was it automatically generated by an installer)?I made the file this way.
Cd /etc/systemd/system && touch spotifyd.service
Sudo nano -l spotifyd.service
Wrote, saved and quit. Then the commands above. I havent tried sudo systemctl edit —force —full
You surely need to explicitly cause
systemd
to process changes after writing to a file. I would be very surprised if it reacted to file system changes automatically.For example, I recall that I need to execute a command like
systemctl daemon-reload
after editing aservice
