I tried editing a sample text with the example in this thread: Create a shortcut for URL?. However it's still doesn't work, also I gave execution permissions for everyone, just in case (chmod 777 desktop_entry.desktop)

    nano desktop_entry.desktop

GNU nano 4.8                 desktop_entry.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
 Encoding=UTF-8
 Name=Link to Ask Ubuntu
 Type=Link
 URL=https://open.spotify.com/
 Icon=text-html

I don't know why it doesn't work. The only workaround I found is this:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Link Spotify
Type=Application
Exec=xdg-open https://open.spotify.com/
Icon=text-html
