# Maloja
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simple self-hosted music scrobble database to create personal listening statistics. No recommendations, no social network, no nonsense.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Why?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Why not Last.fm?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Maloja is self-hosted. You will always be able to access your data, and not have to trust anyone to provide an API for it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Why not Libre.fm / GNU FM?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Maloja is meant to get rid of all the deadweight like a social network. It's just meant to keep track of your listening history and create statistics like your monthly charts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### So just GNU FM, but with some stuff removed?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is one 'added' feature: Maloja supports tracks with multiple artists. And since there is no global music database involved, it's much easier to have a consistent personal library - no more thirteen different spellings of the same group.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Does it work?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
No, it's in development. Just uploaded it here in case I die tomorrow. It can accept scrobbles and return some basic stats in JSON format so far.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Why not use the established API?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Compatibility creates overhead effort. I only made this for myself, so I have no need to support lots of music players and scrobblers.
