the site is useful again because of the scrobbling add-on for browsers, BUT MAKE SURE YOU TURN OFF YOUTUBE so you dont stream your auto recommendations when you fall asleep watching youtube!
last fm users dont need to see my whole youtube history
most importantly tell me your last.fm, of course im doing this shit again
I’ve also never stopped using Last.fm. I’d considered quitting a few years ago because I was afraid that my awareness of the tracking would influence what I listened to, but I don’t think about it much at all these days.
On the other hand, even more of what I listen to is tracked now than before because Poweramp is the music player I use on my phone and I have it linked to my account.
that sidebar app that collected every logo of all your favorite bands was so cool because like, if you’re not a metal band your logo isn’t really official like that
Is this something I’d have to turn javascript back on for? I tried to tell it to run scripts on lastfm, but it keeps insisting that scripts have been blocked. Is it using some weird interstitial domain for critical functions?
a scrobble is when you post a song you’re listening to on their site. you scrobble the audio
in the program you’re using (foobar, browser, spotify, winamp etc) there are options to link the program with your last.fm account
spotify owns last.fm now
knowing i was being scrobbled absolutely influenced my listening habits as a teen and now i feel weird about the data collection in general? that said i use spotify so who cares right
last plays are probably from before i moved house and lost half my computer
