Fun fact since I already ranted about last.fm being the bees knees when it integrated with Spotify - my wife looked up on lastfm music compatibility after we first met and her and a Russian lady are the only 3 above like 75% similar taste in music. Small world but also wild that it's not so small.

Big streamers cater to most people's interests of music and are probably satisfactory for them but for us weirdos in music last.fm and it's music genome thing were amazing.

spotifynewmusic.com used to be an aggregator of human-curated playlists [from The 405, All Music, AV Club, Beardfood, Clash Music, Consequence Of Sound, Drowned In Sound, The Guardian, Music OMH, NME, No Ripcord, Paste, Pitchfork, Pop Matters, Resident Advisor, Slant, The Line Of Best Fit, The Music Fix, The Skinny, Tiny Mix Tapes, and Under The Radar]. It had been my discovery tool of choice, until it abruptly shut down [because, I suspect, the maintainer was a Spotify employee]

ListenBrainz has filled that void for me. My profile here, https://listenbrainz.org/user/iPodSmypod/ Blog post on the topic: https://theonlyblogever.com/blog/2025/scrobbling-libre.html
