A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I'm searching for an alternative to last.fm that can connect to services like Spotify to track my listening habits

It's not "self-hosted" but I use https://listenbrainz.org/

I use listenbrainz to scrobble (track played music). I like it because it is open source, and they publish using open data. This means that everyone has an equal right to the data, and can use and extend it however they want, which is a feature I wish more services.

There is also Ryot I am keeping my eyes on, as it promises to be an encompassing tracker, including tracking music, but its currently in development.

Woah Ryot looks really sweet, had not seen that one before, thanks!

What's wrong with last.fm? I've used them since 2007 and imo they're way better than something like Spotify. Lastfm is free.

You have to pay for certain statistics (e.g. the monthly listening report) and I don't like giving all my listening data away and then still having to pay to see stats about them

[–] neonfire@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Idk, I haven't paid a dime in over 12 years and never saw an ad (with blocking). Never received spam or had features removed or shitified. Lastfm is one of the few places to have done it right imo. Don't get me wrong, self hosting is great, but self host the music before you care about the stats

There was gnu-fm and libre.fm is running it. But it seems libre.fm is building something new.

I’m pretty happy with maloja in conjunction with multi-scrobbler.

[–] cnschn@lemmy.cnschn.com 2 points 1 year ago

It works so well! I have my LMS server scrobble to maloja directly, multi-scrobbler for Spotify and even imported a Spotify data dump so I have my whole history in there.
