I see folks mentioning going back to their dormant LFM accounts. The Metabrainz Foundation has a project ListenBrainz, a more open FOSS style version; if you're going to spin some scrobbling cycles maybe check it out:

(I stopped scrobbling years ago, privacy concerns)
You can also self-host with Maloja and Multi-scrobbler. This is the most privacy-respecting-option.

I rolled them out with Docker and imported my Last.fm listening history using this tool:

There’s also Koito as a Maloja alternative. The Maloja UI was always slow and clunky when I was trying it out.

Those suggetions sound cool!
