#ListenBrainzServerUpdate, v-2026-07-27.0+ This release preps ListenBrainz user accounts and authentication for the MetaBrainz-wide OAuth upgrade that has now launched! The OAuth project centralizes user accounts and improves security. github.com/metabrainz/l... github.com/metabrainz/l...
We are still finessing some details, but all services should be back online and useable! We're so pleased to finally have centralised OAuth, which opens many doors. Please report issues on the forum thread (maybe give it an hour, clear your cache, etc): community.metabrainz.org/t/planned-oa... -a

#ListenBrainzServerUpdate, v-2026-07-20.0 Starting today, Spotify requires users to reconnect their account every 6 months (😑) To avoid interruptions, we will send you a reminder e-mail a month and a week ahead of times with a link to the relevant settings page. github.com/metabrainz/l...
Spotify recently announced a drastic change in their API: connections to your account will now expire after 6 months, starting July 20th. All users will need to reconnect their Spotify account this coming Monday July 20th. blog.metabrainz.org/2026/07/19/s...

@listenbrainz.org tells me that I continued rocking that Tears for Fears, the Stax singles collection just contains an absurd amount of great music and Devil Master bring punk-tinged black metal from the great city of Philadelphia. Slip It In is an all-time BF record, too. #listenbrainztuesday

Really light week on @listenbrainz.org, but I was really happy to finally hear that Jimmy McGriff record, and pleasantly surprised by Tears for Fears. I haven't seriously listened to their music, but the full-length version of Shout is really great. #listenbrainztuesday
Apologies LB users, our services are still behind. This follow-up post covers how and why our servers are still being impacted, an explanation and examples of what we consider “botting” in ListenBrainz – and an apology, 'cause our last post had some baaad comms! blog.metabrainz.org/2026/07/06/c...
#ListenBrainzServerUpdate, v-2026-07-03.0 We're still dealing with an AI scraper hit and an overloaded listen queue (which is a good problem to have, apart from the occasional listen spammer), but the updates are still rolling out. Lots of little fixes and improvements! github.com/metabrainz/l...
"Been meaning to get around to this for awhile. I guess this is the week I'll finally get my library hooked up to @listenbrainz.org."

We have no problem with BTS fans, and we've always had plenty on *brainz 🥰 The issue is a small minority that started doing things like submitting a song listen every few seconds, across many accounts at once, which has impacted our servers. If you're not doing that... welcome to LB!
The nerve of @listenbrainz.org to accuse us of being bots when we're a global fandom who just want to listen to our favourite group is unreal. lol You're a small team on a tight budget (your words, not mine) and you just turned off a huge fandom. I wish you well, good luck.
@listenbrainz.org Painkiller are incredible; really great to be revisiting their discography. Bill Laswell/Mick Harris are super high quality. L'elisir is low-key my 2nd or 3rd favorite opera; it goes down so smooth. Felix Ames isn't that well-known, but I love this record. #listenbrainztuesday
#metabrainzmeetingnotes, 2026-06-29 Skipping the next meeting, as we plan to roll out the oauth migration on that day (2026-07-06). Expected downtime across all projects, see our posts on the subject for details. -a Agenda: Reviews, OAuth Migration community.metabrainz.org/t/notes-from...

Announcing the 7 GSOC participants working with us this summer on MetaBrainz projects! These excellent GSoC contributors have already been working away for a while. Our excuse for the late announcement is... we forgot to do it sooner. -a blog.metabrainz.org/2026/06/26/w...
Catch up on the latest episode and hear @paulcutler.org geek out about the Achordion music community built on #ListenBrainz. Find the show wherever you get your podcasts or visit thebootloader.net
Tried to make it more obvious that those were streaming links in the flyout. The more people scrobble to ListenBrainz and the more @para.chord users, the more external links that show up. Because your music community should be bigger than your music service silo.
Got to an *elite* number of listens on ListenBrainz with perhaps one of anime's best opening themes. listenbrainz.org/track/d07a79...
Embarrassingly, @listenbrainz.org caught me listening to the Zombi soundtrack this week, when I thought it was Zombi 2. Rookie mistake. Foxy Shazam sound the way I always imagine Queen sounding. Finally, this Abel Selacoe album is fire, as is the Adia Victoria record. #listenbrainztuesday
#metabrainzmeetingnotes, 2026-06-22 Ever wondered what these notesare? Turns out MetaBrainz is so open that you can follow our weekly developer/staff and community contributor meetings, where we report what we've each been up to. At this very link! community.metabrainz.org/t/notes-from...

My @listenbrainz.org stats for last week. I didn't realize that I'd listened to that Jacques Tati compilation as much as I did, but I feel good about it. New Jalen Ngonda is throwback soul heaven, and I really dug the Quelle Chris album (I have no idea if that's even a popular take at this point).
