    Super awesome!<p>I credit last.fm with showing me a lot of the music I love, it’s the perfect recommendation model and still the best social music platform so I’m definitely rooting for you to improve on it!

      Thank you! Last.fm was a huge inspiration for Rocksky. I still think scrobbling and social listening are some of the best ways to discover music. Hoping to bring a more open and modern approach to it with ATProto.

        If you can a find a way of A) getting live scrobbles from Last.fm into Rocksky without having to change the clients that are all using Last.fm already and&#x2F;or B) get historical scrobbles out of Last.fm into Rocksky, I&#x27;d think you could potentially take over the ecosystem relatively quickly :)

    So you can scrobble and it gets you new music? But so, how can you listen to that new music?

      Thanks. From the FAQ, <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.rocksky.app&#x2F;faq-918661m0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.rocksky.app&#x2F;faq-918661m0</a><p>&gt; What is Rocksky?<p>&gt; Rocksky is a decentralized, open-source music tracking and discovery platform built on the AT Protocol. It works like Last.fm but publishes your listening history directly to your Bluesky account.<p>-<p>Can we start a trend where we tell people what the thing is and what it does without making them dig around to find it?<p>I don&#x27;t use Bluesky and don&#x27;t plan to start. Rocksky really isn&#x27;t for me.<p>While it&#x27;s not like it was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying &#x27;Beware of the Leopard,&#x27; this whole experience could have been concluded a lot faster if the project page simply described the function of the thing in a forthright fashion.

    Can you add a youtube video of the song so it plays it on your site?

    Finally an Atmosphere app on HN, and it&#x27;s also a very cool one!

      Two if we&#x27;re being pedantic, Tangled.org where this git repository is hosted it also a Atmosphere app ;)

    Lovely, will give it a try later today!<p>I ditched all music services and now navidrome+narjo combo, works perfectly well, flac, and with reverse proxy exposing the server there’s no need to vpn or anything, it’s a drop in replacement, and free.
