last.fm integration

HenestrosaConH

I think it would be a nice addition to have a URL or some kind integration with last.fm API in order to see all the scrobbles that someone had on a given day.

Diarium version: 2.9.37.0
Operating system: Windows 11

What kind of data would you like to see in your journal entry? Showing every single song your heard on that day would probably be a bit overkill...
Maybe some aggregation in one single tag , e.g. "Listened to 40 songs"?
Plus additional tags for every artist or song that you listened to more than, let's say, 5 times?

I will add this feature with the next app update

timo Just enabled this, Timo. Love it! So insightful seeing what sort of music I was listening to on a given day. Adds a whole new depth to On This Day. Well done!

Before I jump into set this up (connect Deezer and Last.fm, if I can), how many songs does it list?

I am glad you are enjoying the new feature, because not everyone does... 🙁🤷

(from a review that I received just this morning)

I think this is one of the integrations that fits so well to Diarium. I wanted to do the Spotify integration, but this is even better as it covers other music services as well. Not sure why I haven't thought of last.fm myself, I used it regularly around 15 years ago...

timo You'll never please everyone and it's pointless to try!

The thing I like about the Last.fm integration is that whilst I could go through my listening history on Last.fm, it's so much more convenient and relevant seeing it on entries in Diarium.

Music is a big thing for me. I listen to an extremely wide range of genres and artists, and what I listen to is usually dictated by the season/weather and my mood, so it's amazing to look back over entries and see the gist of what I was listening to that day.

Just enabled this and it has to be one of my favorite integration that has been added to Diarium.
Before this I used to manually copy the top 5 songs for the days and paste them in my daily entry.

This just makes it so much nicer, clutter free and I don't have to manually copy paste stuff now.

The last.fm integrations shows the total amount of scrobbels per day, plus your "top artists" and "top tracks" (depending on how often you listened to a certain track or artists). It does not list every single track you listen to, that would be way too much
