Re:Spotify to axe 1,500 workers to save costs by creshal on Monday December 04, 2023 @07:28AM (#38516444)
Spotify uses Chromium embedded for their desktop clients and webviews for their mobile clients, so that's largely one codebase for 6+ clients.

A lot of the external frontends are also not made by spotify themselves, but implemented by the manufacturer through Spotify's SDK.

You still want a bunch of dedicated staff to support all that, but it's not as dramatic as it could be.
