spotifyd is using librespot but it still might be worth looking into, as we're currently limited by, well, not-so-great Spotify Connect API. According to docs, spotifyd is exposing a D-Bus service which we could use for controlling playback and displaying current status instead.
As for the reason. First I used Raspotify on my banana-pi and that worked well so I continued with Librespot.
Personally for controlling the player I would prefer to keep on controlling it using Spotify api and not using MPRIS. Fo retrieving playback status it would be usefull.
I was wonder what was the reason for choosing Librespot, did you look at other options like spotifyd.
personally I don't care one way or another as long as there is an working native client for SailfishOS, I'm just curious
