I've backed up over 12 years of last.fm scrobbling with this tool and imported it in Maloja.

I emailed him directly and he suggested using https://benjaminbenben.com/lastfm-to-csv/ for anyone else having this issue. Just note that Last.fm refuses scrobbles older than two weeks, which wasn't an issue, my library was essential and the scrobble time and order were nice-to-haves.

First you need to go to: https://benjaminbenben.com/lastfm-to-csv/ get the csv of all your files, save it to same directory the code is in, then rename the file on line 7 to your csv

I feel like if users have to get an API key to use it probably won't get much use. I haven't seen any myself that require it, but some like https://benjaminbenben.com/lastfm-to-csv/ have an option in the settings to use your own key(Could be helpful if the developers key stops working and doesn't fix it quickly, the user can use their own).

I just came across an app called Finale that enablees this. It's pretty basic and the UI isn't great, but it links your Last.fm and Strava accounts and you can see which songs you listened to for each run along with some basic stats.

There's also https://finale.app (https://web.finale.app) which I haven't tried though, but here it was said that it can do charts (possibly app-only).

There are scrobblers that will "listen" to what's playing and scrobble appropriately. Though obviously those won't work if you're wearing a headset, and it may be hit or miss with the other sounds going on. https://finale.app

I’ve tried to keep my scrobbles accurate over the years, but it’s hit and miss with Apple Music + HomePods. Finale is great for manually scrobbling vinyl and album plays that didn’t sync from the HomePods, but I don’t always remember…

Finale allows you to do both artist and album collages for any date ranges! https://finale.app

Sorry for replying this late !

I actually didn’t know the Discogs app supported scrobbling, I currently use an open source app called “Finale”[1] that does the job pretty well. As soon as I can get my hands on a RaspberryPi, I have plans to make the whole process automatic.

I have a rather convoluted setup for achieving just this using last.fm, Finale and SongShift. It is really handy being able to pull stuff into my library automatically. The root problem as to why Apple(or anyone else for that matter) hasn't done this tends to be that radio metadata is often shit, or non-existent. While they could identify the songs using Shazam, that would require a fair amount of computing power to do at scale, and those services aren't infallible. Shazam and ACR(which powers Finale) doesn't identify everything. It does a reasonably good job, but wouldn't be perfect relative to people's expectations.

Finale (free - works similarly to the official app).
