If you've been wanting to get scrobbling history and recommendations similar to spotify without having to be subbed to spotify you can go about this process to get your spotify listening history imported into Listenbrainz.

Listenbrainz does have a settings page to import spotify history but it is not implemented yet so this process can be used to import now. I went through and was able to get my listening history imported over although I needed to update the script that filters out skipped songs. You'd need to update the X to however many json files spotify gives you for your listening history and then also update the start date to your first listen on your current listenbrainz history.

#!/bin/bash

MIN_DURATION=30000

START_DATE="YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS"


for i in {0..X}; do
    input_file="parsed_endsong_$i.json"

    output_file="filtered_endsong_$i.jsonl"

    elbisaur parse "$input_file" \
        --filter "skipped!=1&&duration_ms>=$MIN_DURATION" \
        -b "$START_DATE" \
        "$output_file"
    fi
done

Or make your own script that'll work better or maybe the one listed in the article works for you ¯\(ツ)/¯
