People: MusicBrainz still exists? MusicBrainz:

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...

Hello! Today's planned OAuth migration has been rescheduled for July 20th. -a Details on the OAuth changes: blog.metabrainz.org/2026/06/25/u...

#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...

If you use digest authentication in the web service, or use apps that do (e.g. terminal apps that use python-musicbrainzngs), then please generate a token to replace your pw at: beta.musicbrainz.org/account/appl... If you don't think you use/need digest auth at all, you should disable it there.

#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...

We are in the process of moving user accounts, authentication and OAuth applications from MusicBrainz to MetaBrainz. Users, you don't need to do anything - enjoy the shiny new system when it arrives! Developers, please read the blog post for details. Details: blog.metabrainz.org/2026/06/25/u...

#MusicBrainzSchemaChange complete! Thank you for your patience. All sites should now be back to normal. Full blog post: blog.metabrainz.org/2026/03/11 Expect a second blog post with release info and upgrade instructions later today / tomorrow.

Services depending on MusicBrainz are back up, but MusicBrainz itself is still not fully back.

We currently anticipate an additional one-hour delay for this downtime.
