From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

All my ducks seem to be in order and the correct configs in the right place. But i keep getting this message. As you can see the file exists. It is not empty, but systemctl cannot find it. Any help would be very very appreciated.

Why are you creating a system service for a user application? It will run Spotify as root unless you override the user. Did you know you can add your own services for your user at
~/.config/systemd/user/?Anyway, your method to add the service seems correct (create a file and reload the daemon), so I suspect it might refuse to load the file due to a syntax error in the service. Also perhaps compare the file permissions with the other files in the systemd folder.
Additionally if you're looking for it to start on boot without logging in, you might find the loginctl enable-linger command to be of use. Maybe along with a
Restart=on-failurepolicy in the service file if this is for a headless unit or something
