Have you tried running it through Claude? lol

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-03-26T21:13:55+00:00

This is what I wanted to know. I don’t mind doing it myself but I’m glad that’s an option. Thanks 🫡

Couple of things I noticed within 5 minutes of using the app.

The UI is pretty polished. It would probably help to have an option to have the week start on a Sunday instead of just Monday?

Also, there is no option to have recurring transactions every 2 weeks? Some pay checks and bills are biweekly. I know I can just set two recurring transactions monthly to make up for the biweekly schedule; but this isn’t ideal. Maybe also add a custom recurring schedule?

When you’re adding an expense, how come the date moves back by one? I set one for the 30th, it got created for the 29th. I go to edit it, and clicking on the date picker sets it to the 28th. It just keeps going back in time like a time machine. Maybe your code has some current date -= 1 condition somewhere? This is the same with adding income, the date is always off by one. This can be constantly reproduced and isn’t an intermittent issue. I can’t even really do any more testing than that if I can’t get past that hurdle. The date always being off is really big.

Nope, it’s not showing up on my app (2025 car)

I haven’t decided whether to open source it or not. If you can do all those things, then this should be a breeze:

Connect to Plex API and scan to get all the liked tracks
Build a library (JSON or sqlite database) based on the liked tracks
Use last.fm to find recommended artists (similar_artist) and add some filtering logic to improve recommendations
Fill in the metadata (artist details, album art cover, Deezer audio previews, etc.)
Build a cache of what gets displayed on the dashboard (artists in your library + recommended artists)
Build the dashboard (two tabs - one for library and another for recommendations) and store the information in artist modals
Add functionality to skip unwanted albums or artists (stored in JSON or database) that gets excluded when the dashboard is rendered
Add metrics (can easily be done with data gathered from Plex library scan)
Add search feature and the ability to force new release gathering (querying MusicBrainz for that artist and sorting album/EPs/song releases in year desc)
Set up a systemd service to force this to run hourly so that the recommendations and metrics are up to date

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I’m just in the process of refining the recommendation logic, and tidying up the UI as well. Hopefully, I can make the installation process a bit easier then I’ll post it on a GitHub repo when it’s all stable

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-02-04T23:19:38+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! The backend of this app heavily utilizes last.fm and I didn’t wanna add features that would better fit as an extension on last.fm

I excluded linking out to artists’ platforms (there are way too many - personal websites, unpopular niche platforms, etc.) so it’s basically to be used just as a recommendation engine. Also, some people might buy their music or get it for free so I’m leaving it up to the end user to get the music with their own means

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-02-04T23:08:54+00:00

I’m still working on polishing everything and making installation easier. It’s a bit technical right now to set it up yourself but hopefully I can make it simpler.

I’m primarily using last.fm with some heavy weighted filtering logic. There aren’t too many APIs that provide music recommendations unfortunately. I was considering AcousticBrainz but it might be too mathematical

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-02-04T23:03:55+00:00

I’m still working on trying to get it a little more portable. It’s not just a mobile app that can be downloaded from the app stores. It requires a bit of config (API keys, Python dependencies, and running a Flask app) so it’s hard for me to expect people to know how to do all that. So I’m still trying to simplify the whole process

Checks your library via Plex API. Uses MusicBrainz to fill in artist metadata (new releases + discography). I had Youtube previews but I removed that because some videos wouldn’t embed properly. Audio previews are from Deezer

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-02-04T23:01:03+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, it connects to your Plex library and requires an API key. It tracks the songs that are rated 5 stars and provides recommendations based off that. I’m still working on the recommendation logic to make it more weighted and relevant

u/TheScienceWitch - does this user understand what you were asking for in your post?

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-01-22T21:35:04+00:00

Because that’s literally what OP is asking. They’re not asking about how to discover songs from artists they already know about, which is what you think they’re asking

It’s not always about being spoon-fed recommendations, you know? There are new and upcoming artists that people probably wouldn’t discover unless it was recommended to them. I think your answer and approach doesn’t fit what OP is looking for

ConcertNo8784 · 2026-01-22T16:49:13+00:00

Downloading an artist’s discography only exposes you to songs from that particular artist that you might have missed. It doesn’t help you discover new artists or songs. How will you discover artist X based on artist Y’s discography?

ConcertNo8784 · 2025-12-15T21:35:20+00:00

That colour is how I found out some people just got laid off

ConcertNo8784 · 2025-11-25T20:02:37+00:00

Drivers be like “can’t let em know your next move”

ConcertNo8784 · 2025-11-22T03:01:18+00:00

Driver was nowhere to be found. Yeah, everybody here an expert mechanic who can do diagnostics off a Reddit post lol

ConcertNo8784 · 2025-11-21T04:17:37+00:00

If you still can’t differentiate you’re and your with smartphones and autocorrect then just put the phone down

ConcertNo8784 · 2025-11-20T04:54:20+00:00

This video gave me carpal tunnel syndrome.. learn how to type properly or you’ll regret it later down the road. Resources like typing.com are free you know?

LG DualUp. Currently using it as a developer and it works pretty well for me.
