Log in with Facebook button & clicking Look Back at 2017

All buttons that require an exit from Spotify downloaded player & into a web browser (Chrome in my case) are just opening up a new tab instead of signing me in or compiling my stats for 2017.

Slow after Mac OS High Sierra update / keyboard isn't working

It takes forever to load, and when it does... It takes like 3 minutes to display a search or respond to de buttons. Multimedia keys aren't working either. Other programs like VLC are fine, it's just Spotify (for me at least)
