I have seen most, if not all spotify frontends (that actually play music from spotify rather than finding the stream on yt) require spotify premium. Why is that so?
I may be slight off here, but for anything other than viewing currently playing, and maybe a few other things, you need premium to choose a track, and control the player.

I suspect that Spotify restricts the connect capabilities and/or API to premium users.
But since Spotify free has always been unusable, I don’t see the problem.
Presumably it makes use of API access.
