What’s Changed

Introducing user flairs!

https://blog.metabrainz.org/2024/12/16/listenbrainz-donor-flairs/

If you are a donor to MetaBrainz and a user of ListenBrainz, you will now be able to show it to the world by selecting a user flair (an animation on your user name).
Don’t worry, we are not planning on pay-walling any features, this is a just a fun way of thanking our lovely supporters.

Static effects, animations and mouse-over animations, all are unlocked for a month when you donate $5. Paying more will stack further months of flair.

Check out the different effects in your settings page, and then head to the donation page to unlock them and help us pay for our server costs and keep all that lovely data flowing. If you can’t afford this cost, don’t worry! Your presence is always enough. Thank you for being part of this project and this community.

New feature this month: Symdication feeds !

@ericd23 has been working over the summer on implementing Atom feeds (like RSS feeds if that's more familiar) during his GSOC project.
You can now keep up to date with your (or other's) newest listens, top stats, recommendation playlists and more.
More information on the MetaBrainz blog post.

In other news, a bug that prevented playlist exports to Spotify was previously fixed but never deployed, and is now out.
Our apologies for not catching that sooner.
