Just spun it a up earlier today, looks great! I'm wondering if maybe I'm misunderstanding how listenbrainz subs work. The explore subscription doesn't pull in my users "weekly exploration" playlist, it's totally unrelated songs it's pulling. Although it does appear to pull in accurate listenbrainz artist recommendations

Sorry, which subscription specifically were you using? I'll try to reproduce the behavior you're seeing. Might be an easy fix.
Listenbrainz Explore

I just noticed there is an explore tab on listenbrainz, is that what this is supposed to pull from? I was thinking it was supposed to pull from the weekly exploration playlist listenbrainz creates.
Interesting, that could be a bug. I'll check it out. Thanks!
This sounds great. I will have to check it out when I'm back home. I have been missing a music discovery tool as I am trying to avoid using any of the corporate overlord algorithm machines.
Awesome! I hope you like it. I've successfully converted my household from Spotify to Plexamp using this. Setup a few subscriptions, let the new artists and recommendations roll in, and you have a constant stream of new music.
GitHub link is funky, need to remove the ()
Thank you. Link is fixed.
Is it possible to set this up with navidrome instead of lidarr?
Navidrome can scrobble to Listenbrainz which this supports.
Was super interested right up until the AI recommendations bit.
I completely understand. Just one minor feature though, and it's entirely optional. The real meat is in the "subscriptions", which rely on more steadfast services like Last.fm and Spotify.
You might not like it, but AI can totally give you a recommendation of similar bands.
Looks cool. Any chance you'll add Qobuz to the integration list in the future?
I have yet to try OP’s tool, but I already have Qobuz connected to Last.fm and subsequently ListenBrainz if that is any use?
Yes, that's a perfect setup. You can point Mixarr at ListenBrainz or Last.fm and get recommendations, playlists, etc. based on your Qobuz scribbling.
I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post...
