Flickr Most of the time when I listen to music I scrobble what I listen to. Once a great service, currently my personal archive for listening habits. Last.fm When Musk took over I dusted of my dormant Mastodon account and never looked back. Mastodon Some private projects are on Github. Github I made something for last.fm, RSS-Feeds that are missing # Last.fm RSS Feeds
