Lidarr is not a Spotify replacement. There is no way to play music, just like you can't play movies in Radarr.
There is no way to discover new artists, it only knows the artists you tell it about.
I use lidarr along with last.fm to discover new artists, and then Plexamp as my music player. Plex automatically scrobbles what I listen to and last.fm feeds me recommendations.
Since starting with lidarr a couple years ago my music library has grown from zero to nearly 3000 albums. 41k tracks.
My setup is exactly the same, actually. I love last.fm and scrobbling, been doing it for 15 years probably.
I was trying to say that Lidarr isn't a silver bullet. There are lots of ways to discover music, but OP seems happy with Spotify.
