Flatpak has portals for the same purpose. Unfortunately, many apps don't support portals yet. The Flatpak for Spotify does not allow access to home, only to the music directory (read-only). So, it's running in a proper sandbox too.

I don't use Spotify, but have you tried using Flatseal[0], to modify the folder access of the application?
