| Problem: | |
| I experienced Spotify being stuck in full screen mode. | |
| The title bar with minimize, maximize and close wasn't present and no keyboard shortcut I know about would exit full screen. | |
| Solution | |
| rm ~/snap/spotify/current/.config/spotify/prefs | |
| Works both in 18.04.01 and 20.04.x | |

Fished around and found the apt package equivalent (Performed in Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS) is
rm ~/.config/spotify/prefs
You may experience a crash or two as I did, this is just Spotify re-generating the prefs file, it should self-correct. Thanks for pointing out that prefs file!
