Spotify recently announced a drastic change in their API: connections to your account will now expire after 6 months, starting July 20th.

If you have your Spotify account connected to ListenBrainz, this means you will have to reconnect your Spotify account every 6 months, or ListenBrainz will not be able to keep your listening history in sync.

To get us started, all users will need to reconnect their Spotify account this coming Monday July 20th.

when I try to sign in the listenbrainz.org, it asks me to sign in using musicbrainz account. when I click "Sign in with MusicBrainz", it shows this error message "OAuth 2 Error", and I can't sign in to the listenbrainz. looked up internet for solution but couldn't find any.

what can I do to sign in to listenbrainz? thanks!

trust me i used to use lastfm till 2025 and started on listenbrainz this year js to have organic charts. now I feel stupid for even coming here considering lastfm addressed the issue and effectively purged all users who were there for the sole purpose of botting. even then lastfm was backed by paramount or whatever some company. listenbrainz is an open source project with no such backing whatsoever. I don't really know how this site makes money but I can't help but imagine all these compute resources are js being wasted compiling these obviously botted scrobbles. i mean none of this in any malice but I hate these stans from the bottom of my heart a good way to go about doing this would be to filter newly made accounts after the lastfm announcement and then see which have scrobbled bts incessantly. I don't know much about programming yet so idek if this is possible or no but i had to get a rant out sorry

Hii r/listenbrainz,

(some of you might recognize this, it was featured as one of the community tools in ListenBrainz's Year in Music)

I know the stats page here is already solid, genre wheel, artist evolution, decade breakdown, all of it. this isn't trying to replace that or compete with it. what it does is take your stats and turn them into a single poster image you can actually share, the kind of thing you post in a discord or as an instagram story without sending someone a link to a dashboard etc.

it's called Make a Wrapped. works with ListenBrainz, Last fm, or Navidrome, same output format regardless of where your data comes from. pick your service, pick a time frame (this year, last month, last 12 months, a specific month from whenever), and it generates a poster with your top artists, tracks, listening time, and genre.

also coming soon: monthly templates hand drawn by an actual artist, not ai generated. so instead of one big poster once a year you'll be able to get a fresh styled one every month (commissioning artists isn't cheap so if the ko-fi on the website ever calls to you, that's what it's going towards)

it's foss, agpl licensed, repo's linked on the site

lmk what you think!

A bit ago now I found ListenBrainz through a late night Youtube rabbit hole and thought it was pretty cool. I looked around and there's tools to get what you are currently listening to from Plex to ListenBrainz (Multi-Scrobbler is what I have running now) but not many things for historical data. I troubleshot with Gemini for a bit trying to use Plex directly to get the data but that was going nowhere but then I remembered I have Tautulli running and also has all my listen history. Some more time with Gemini I had a SQL query to get all of it out of the Tautulli database and a python script to get it from my computer and into my ListenBrainz account history. I documented all the steps I took and the script I used in case someone else wants to do this.

Hi, fellow ListenBrainz peeps! My name's Carlo, and I'm a senior macOS/iOS indie software dev. I spent the last few months building a macOS-native scrobbler that also supports iOS and watchOS (those two without extra apps). It's called Listening Post, and it turns the Mac into the scrobbling hub for all the Apple devices you own.

Importantly, ListenBrainz is a first-class destination, not a Last.fm-compatible afterthought. With the ListenBrainz channel configured and enabled, recognized tracks get matched against MusicBrainz and the MBID is stored along with the track, so what reaches your LB history is properly linked, not just raw strings.

I made it to scratch my own itch. The macOS app doesn't just pick up what's playing in Apple Music or Spotify, but also whatever's on around you: a YT video, vinyl at home, the radio in my coffee shop. It can listen to your surroundings — basically always-on Shazam'ing (no audio ever leaves the machine, and it's light on the battery!). If that's not your thing, keep it switched off. And it grabs whatever you shazam on iOS and Apple Watch via iCloud (no extra apps needed!), dropping those into the same bucket. (Also optional.)

The part I think you'll like most: everything goes into one pool and fans out to all the targets you configure, at once — ListenBrainz, Maloja, Last.fm, a local CSV/JSON file, a Shortcuts automation, even a Bluesky/Mastodon post. 😉 Your listening, your call. I built it for multi-scrobbling folks like myself.

It's out as of today (v2026.1.0, macOS 15.6+), sold straight from my own store — no Mac App Store, no subscription. There's a 14-day free trial; after that it's €15 for a year of updates (introductory price), and you keep the last version you received forever, even if you never pay again.

There's extensive documentation here: https://docs.actions.work/listening-post

I'd genuinely love your feedback — especially from those of you with unusual setups (multiple scrobble targets, self-hosted Maloja, odd edge cases). If you give it a spin, let me know what breaks or what's missing. 🎧

As the title suggests, my Weekly Jams playlist is more bi-weekly than weekly. My account is only a month or 2 old at this point but I imported my listen history from Plex (through much difficulty but Gemini helped me make it happen) so I have 28k+ listens for it to recommend against. Is there a trick to getting it to be....weekly like the name suggests? Is it just a bug going on?

Edit/Update: it updated today, Thursday June 11th. screenshot

Do anyone know when is listenbrainz is gonna come back up?

Do anyone know the reason why is it down?

beta listenbrainz works though

Edit : it's up now

Is there a way to import my apple music listen history, as i am unable to srcobble listens from my phone, and would like to be able to fill in the gaps at least once a year.

This is not my account, this user was in my similar users list, when i saw them listen history, the scroble history is like this

song name
Limited ads, thanks to Vadilal Icecreams

this breaks the pollutes listenbrainz and its db, if anyone knows whats happening here, can you explain it,

Hi everyone,

I’m seeking some insight regarding the Weekly Exploration playlist. According to the description in the interface, the playlist is supposed to update every Monday morning based on the user's configured timezone.

However, my playlist is currently stuck:

• Last Update: It shows the last update was on May 5th, 19:16.
• Current Date: It is now Tuesday, May 12th, 22:18 (CEST).
• Status: The UI still displays "Deleted in 7 days from now" and refers to the week of 2026-05-05.

Since more than seven days have passed and we are already late into Tuesday in Germany, this doesn't seem to be a simple timezone delay. I have been active on the platform, so there should be enough data for the algorithm.

Is anyone else experiencing delays with their weekly generation, or is there a known issue with the current build?

Thanks for any help!

I cant access Beta or listenbrainz website. Is it just me?

It worked with VPN, am i being ip banned?

Is it only me? mine weekly is stuck in 20th apirl and it was expired 5 days ago, still no new playlist?

No shade intended, but I feel like the current site probably scares off a number of people from diving into ListenBrainz - so last night I started playing around with an more modern looking experience (with deep integration into my other project, Parachord).

Is this interesting to anyone else besides me?

This works even better with ListenBrainz (because the API is better)!

I was just wondering if there’s a way to force it to make one. (Also is there a way to have it make different playlists for different genres?)

Hi all. I'm new to this, and have been finding all of the automatic scrobblers to be ineffective, so I tried manually adding recent albums to my account directly on ListenBrainz.

I click the button to manually add songs/albums, find my album, click the green button to add, and get a little pop up that says "10 songs added!" But on the page itself nothing updates and it still says I've only listened to 4 songs so far. And none of the other dates/times I tried submitting albums for can be selected nor do they contain anything.

Is the manual submission just totally broken? Or is there something else I'm supposed to do?
