okay listened to the part about scrobble now :D (21:30 for those interested)
so no, it doesn't store music, and no, the idea didn't come from 
scrobble has been an idea for a long time actually as I used to use last.fm and was annoyed that spotify didn't store your history the way I liked it, I also was a fan of one feature that soundcloud had which was to show timed comments when playing a track from random users and i also like how genius added "community notes" to lyrics where if they required an explanation someone would give it and people would vote it up
so I basically thought I'd bundle the best of all three worlds together into scrobble.life while keeping the data decentralized and in your hands, i.e. if last.fm goes down or scrobble.life goes down you can easily fetch your history by querying for the custom.json op with scrobble's ID in HAF to get it back.
This means free storage (as long as you have RC) for your scrobbles and I also added anon scrobbles for those that don't wanna publicize their listening habits but may still wanna use our upcoming feature where you can have AI agents look through your history of scrobbles and social activity around them to know what to recommend you next that may be in your style/to your liking. This feature is not yet implemented as things are still just starting out, it'll work best if you have a bigger history of course.
Either way, the extension is basically a fork of web scrobbler (it only works for what u listen to on your browser) and a fork of universal trakt scrobbler (for movies and tv), but we added manual logging for movies & tv and podcasts cause you may not always watch/listen to those on your browser.
Anyway, that's some info there, imma stop before I write a bigger wall.
