More than just 'what app are you using', but I do want that as well.

I want a good mindset for downloading music that has what I want and at least some of what I'll probably like.

Currently, partially as a limitation of the app, I have every song in every album that contains something I like. This works well ish for discovery, but I know less than a quarter of my library, no matter how much time I spend listening to new music. This was with Lidar + tubifary (Tidal and Slskd only).

Currently I'm trying Downtify configured with slskd and yt as a backup, but it seems very slow to download and the app itself is very laggy.

Lidarr, and YouTube Music with last.fm scrobbling.

Lidarr monitors my last.fm scrobbles and automatically downloads anything I've listened to enough.

I also manually add stuff to lidarr that I've heard on radio stations like 4ZZZ, or as soundtracks to movies and TV shows I'm watching.

Currently at 2.8TB on my music library.

I'm pulling from torrent sites as the preference, with Usenet backup. FLAC quality, and CD source. I've also ripped all my CDs, and updated Musicbrainz for stuff that didn't already exist there so it works nicely with lidarr.

Tried using Soulseek but it's laughably bad. Wrong tags, gatekeepers who have ludicrous restrictions on their libraries, and most music is just (poorly) downloaded from streaming services anyway.

I use Plexamp for listening, or YouTube Music. Mostly I'm just downloading it because I know at some point in the future I'm going to crack the sads with paying the price YouTube Music charges. Seems to go up every month. When I get rid of it I want a decent library ready to go, and a nice listening history so the the recommendations aren't total shite.

I cancelled YT Premium and use Morphe to patch the official YouTube/YT Music apps. Worth looking at. morphe.software

How did you glue together lidarr and last.fm?

[–] trk@aussie.zone 1 points 3 days ago

Import list: https://wiki.servarr.com/en/lidarr/supported#lists

And I use https://ytmdesktop.app/ on the desktop which has last.fm scrobbling built in.

I also run the last.fm scrobble app on my phone, though it's honestly a bit hit and miss. Probably Android updates breaking it's ability to read notifications and/or stay running. Seems to be working at the moment mind you.

I have 200,000ish scrobbles on last.fm
