Yeah! I don't have much to do because of the quarantine.

The Zeroconf port is actually TCP (do not use 5353 to avoid confusion), then you need to open the UDP port 5355 for mDNS.

I worked with opening the TCP port I've set in the config file, thank you very much.

It shouldn't be 5355 for mdns though, that's just what I've set it to in my config file. It should be 5353, no?

5355 is UDP and for mDNS, the port you select in the configuration is TCP and used for Spotify communication.

Here it says 5353: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_DNS

An mDNS message is a multicast UDP packet sent using the following addressing:

    IPv4 address 224.0.0.251 or IPv6 address ff02::fb
    UDP port 5353
