In settings ListenBrainz says:

We will record your listening history permanently and make it available for others to view and explore. Discover and play songs directly on ListenBrainz, and import/export your playlist to and from Spotify.

I see, that I can export playlist (in playlist's settings), created in ListenBrainz. But how can a playlist be imported?

Strawberry Music Player provides ListenBrainz with a lot more metadata than any other player or scrobbler I've found.

I had a track that ListenBrainz consistently attributed to the wrong album, but on a lark, I put the folder into Picard and had it tag the files. Since then, listens submitted by Strawberry have the correct album cover art, but those from Pano Scrobbler still have the wrong one.

Looking at Strawberry's source code, it's picking up release and artist MBIDs that it finds on your music files and including them as part of the submission.

This cleans up a ton of weirdness that one could see in ListenBrainz but not last.fm (which I scrobble in parallel), such as plays for live and greatest-hits albums being attributed to whatever studio album they came from — something that didn't happen all the time, but frequently enough to be maddening.

last.fm has its own quirks, above all considering Unicode ‘smart quote marks’ and ASCII 'dumb quote marks' to be different things. Which they technically are, but last.fm's automatic tag correction fixes many other minor things like periods and spacing, while never matching up different quote marks.

My friend's Last.FM app has died on iOS. While we try to get it working, would anyone like to recommend a favorite third-party app?

MastoBrainz bridges the gap between your music and Mastodon. It harnesses the data from ListenBrainz, a platform that logs and shares your music listening habits, to seamlessly update your Mastodon profile with your currently playing track or the last piece of music you enjoyed.

It happens on all ListenBrainz pages except the "Settings" and "About" sections.

Hey guys, I was curious about ways to scrobble physical media. Preferably with both listenbrainz and last.fm support

I've tried to do Shazam and Pano Scrobbler but autoshazam is quite crappy and barely works.

I am slowly migrating away from Last.fm (which still has one blogging friend who randomly quotes my statistics) to ListenBrainz. Initial import from Last.fm works just well - and after that, I needed to improvise:

• Music player: cmus.
• Scrobbling: cmus-status-scrobbler with both services enabled in the configuration file.

My "status display program" is a small shell script that does not (much) more than call cmus_status_scrobbler.py. Works just well: ListenBrainz, Last.fm. :-)
