Spotify Listenbrainz Import in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

It’s kinda like an open source version of last.fm scrobbling. One feature they have that I was interested in was the weekly discover playlist.

If you've been wanting to get scrobbling history and recommendations similar to spotify without having to be subbed to spotify you can go about this process to get your spotify listening history imported into Listenbrainz.

Listenbrainz does have a settings page to import spotify history but it is not implemented yet so this process can be used to import now. I went through and was able to get my listening history imported over although I needed to update the script that filters out skipped songs. You'd need to update the X to however many json files spotify gives you for your listening history and then also update the start date to your first listen on your current listenbrainz history.

#!/bin/bash

MIN_DURATION=30000

START_DATE="YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS"


for i in {0..X}; do
    input_file="parsed_endsong_$i.json"

    output_file="filtered_endsong_$i.jsonl"

    elbisaur parse "$input_file" \
        --filter "skipped!=1&&duration_ms>=$MIN_DURATION" \
        -b "$START_DATE" \
        "$output_file"
    fi
done

Or make your own script that'll work better or maybe the one listed in the article works for you ¯\(ツ)/¯

Interesting so they’re using secure boot to hardware ban but I could see used hardware being an issue now :/

So it figures out where you are based on vibes?

Gamers have you ever been in a game competition or something similar? in c/games@lemmy.world

Went to a local smash tournament with my friends a while ago now and it became apparent to me that I was really good among my friends, but the worst at a tournament lmao.

That's interesting I'd wonder if totk or botw would run better without the paid switch 2 update then.

I don’t think temtem is affected as much by this since they’re not a studio based in Japan.

Does this apply to manifest 3 extension changes as well or is this something different

REPO devs gently ask modders to 'optimize the amount of server traffic they send' to avoid 'skyrocketing server costs' in c/games@sh.itjust.works
[–] JohnWorks@sh.itjust.works 28 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Didn’t know they were using servers thought it was p2p. Good to see they’re still ok with mods though. For the most part anyways.

Switch 2 Joy-Con Will Not Feature Hall Effect Sticks in c/games@sh.itjust.works
[–] JohnWorks@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (6 children)

Joycon doesn't have magnets the switch itself does. Although when docked with the switch it probably would interfere. I have to imagine there's a way to program against that if there's a consistent magnetic source.

I used to play lost in blue for the ds quite a bit when I was a kid. I don't think I got very far because I kept starving lol.

At least there's marking on the packaging so you'd know which ones to avoid getting.
