Allow me to spread the word about ListenBrainz. ListenBrainz is a FOSS project that aims to crowdsource listening data from digital music and release it under an open license. Basically it’s Last.fm but better. Whatever you use to listen to music, you can probably link it up with ListenBrainz. All ListenBrainz listening data is available for all to use, commercially or not. Why should we give our listening data only to proprietary companies like Spotify and depend on them, when we can share it. If you’ve kept track of your what music you’ve listened to up to this point, don’t worry, there are several ways to import them into ListenBrainz so you can keep an overview of all your music listening.
I am not working for ListenBrainz in any way, I just really like this project, and I had not seen much on Lemmy about them, so I’m happy to spread the word.
.fmbot is essentially a social bot for Discord that handles last.fm stuff that you can drop into a server. It’s essentially the site but as a Discord bot, with some little trinkets here and there. It’s all good fun, really, if you like the social aspect. I pay for the bot as my Last.fm account is relatively new, and it allows importing your listens from Spotify (through a GDPR request for extended listening history). I have requested ListenBrainz user dump support; they have considered supporting ListenBrainz but the main issue is that the API limits are worse than Last.fm’s.
A lot of music servers use it for the social aspect. Chuu (named after the k-pop star) is a similar bot.
