Holy shit.
I have been struggling with a not-quite-perfect scrobbling setup between Maloja and Multi-Scrobbler because I was trying to slowly move away from Last.fm because of lack of trust in ownership.
If they can pull this off and truly be independent again, I will actually stop moving away from them for a while.
Listenbrainz works great for me. What's your problem with it?
I was just looking for a most self-hosty and privacy respecting solution initially. I will keep running it alongside Last.fm in case there's a reason I need to dump Last.fm or if I decide I don't want my listening habits on a public site.
EDIT: To be more clear, I have no issues with Listenbrainz at all, I just wanted to self-host.
