As for spammyness, I'm aware this is an issue. For non-bot channels I recommend using .togglecommand and enabling just a few specific commands, and setting a small embed mode so .fm commands don't take up too much space in chat.
The Plex integration gets pretty close to native, but it only scrobbles after a track is done, it doesn't have 'Now Playing' support.
As for Deezer and Quobuz I'm not sure. Afaik Spotify still stands alone by being set-and-forget, working on any device and having full feature support.
Spotify is still the only big streaming service with native platform-level scrobbling. For everything else it's a lot more DIY, usually with third party tools at the device level.
A big reason it’s still relevant is the ecosystem around it. The API hasn't really changed in 15 years, which makes it easy to build tools where a username alone is enough. That kind of lightweight social integration has mostly disappeared elsewhere.
Today, the social / community side is almost entirely just Discord. Nearly every music related server has a bot that displays Last.fm stats. My estimate is that abut 10% of Last.fm their users are also active in Discord music communities.
(Disclaimer: I run .fmbot, a Discord bot that integrates with Last.fm.)
gpt-4o-mini for comparison:
- Input: $0.15
- Cached Input $0.075
- Output: $0.60
Tasked it with two different things, refactoring a huge function of around ~400 lines and creating some unit tests split into different files. The refactor was done flawlessly. The unit tests almost, only missed some imports.
All I did was open it in the root of my project and prompt it with the function names. It's a large monolithic solution with a lot of subprojects. It found the functions I was talking about without me having to clarify anything. Cost was about $2.
Not sure if they solved it, but might be helpful asking them.
Can't wait to try out GPT 5.6 at some point when it comes available.
