every time i'm importing a bulk amount of music into my library, I'm met with a lot of mild-to-moderate track duration mismatches against musicbrainz, and i'm just still unsure how to feel about that

your fav artist: *drops new release*

me (and also other @musicbrainz.org editors): sending pipebombs in form of new entries and edits to the database so @last.fm users don't have to fight with their scrobbling client to fix metadata

Always nice to get notifications that an artist I added on @musicbrainz.org for @getyourgenki.bsky.social is getting new info added by other people.

If someone says or implies that MusicBrainz is a 'music archive' (likely in relation to the recent annas-archive Spotify rip...) you have my permission to scoff. MusicBrainz does not store music. Let the scoffing commence -a

Multi-scrobbler v0.10.7 includes more accurate and granular @musicbrainz.org search, flow control for scrobble transformations, and secrets interpolation into config files.

Flow control is exciting as it lets you do things like: Only run Native Stage if Musicbrainz Stage fails to find a match.

The new release of my app, Multi-scrobbler v0.10.5, includes support for matching and correcting all of your scrobbles using the Musicbrainz database. 🎉

Regardless of where you scrobble from, MS can make sure your data is nice and clean before it hits your scrobble client.
