There is no 32bits version of Spotify for linux. (dependencies can't be satisfied on 32bits os). You'll have to use the web player instead.

Re: Q4OS 32 bit - spotify

Thanks for the answer. After too much search I've found the solution. There is an unofficial client called spotify-qt. It is easy to install it with snaps:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
sudo snap install core
sudo snap install spotify-qt
You have to restart your machine to see the new app in the menu.

Thank you very much for the tip ! I will test it as soon as possible (I'm a spotify user too ) ; I noticed there's an appimage version of this app:
https://github.com/kraxarn/spotify-qt/r … 1.AppImage
If it works with 32bits, I suggest to use it instead of installing the *infamous* snapd (I really dislike snap... It's not the place to explain why, but I prefer Appimage).
I see we can build the binary too, I think I will try to build a package from it

Here it is:

https://github.com/seb3773/spotify-qt-spotifyd-packages

x64, i386 & armhf packages.

(you have to install spotifyd too, as it is needed by spotify-qt to play music on your local machine).
It's lighter than the snap/appimage versions and should start faster too
