Music Recommadations? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Is there any way to get Spotify-like music recommendations from a website or app (using the local library)?

Also is there a simple way to sync playlists between phone and linux pc? Manually having to import playlists from the music folder every time is very annoying so I just dont use playlists.

I've heard of people using a combination of a scrobbler and listenbrainz to combine listening history and get new recommendations

That seems like the suggestions that best fits what I wanted, I have just installed simple scrobbler and set up a listenbrainz account. I also kind of like how listenbrainz handles data sharing, as they are very explicit about how they use your listening data.

Now I just have to wait to get some suggestions :)

Isnt really what I asked for but looks great as a general streaming service alternative

I don't know about music recommendations, but I personally use a Jellyfin server with clients for any OS I use. That pretty much shows the same playlists everywhere.
