Hello everyone

Yes I know, a few months ago a post with the exact same title was shared in this community by @test626@lemmy.ml. But this was at a time when lemmy was still quite small. I would like to give the topic new momentum.

From their wiki:

ListenBrainz is a project by the MetaBrainz foundation which allows you to publicly store a record of all of the songs that you listen to. Using this data, we provide statistics, recommendations, and a platform for you and other developers to explore this data.

Many of you probably use a music streaming service. You share your user data with the company anyway, and some of it with others. If you feel like it, you can make your data available to the general public and help other open source apps to build their services on this data.

This looks interesting. It looks geared to importing data from a service (like Spotify), how would one import data from the radio or mp3 files? I don't really stream music but love the idea of new ways to find new music.

There is a lot of import options:

Direct integrations like Last.fm or Spotify
music clients like VLC or Rythmbox
streaming solutions like Jellyfin, Kodi or Funkwhale
the android ListenBrainz app for all your streaming apps, NewPipe/YoutTube, Odysee, ...
