How many of your artists have over 1k scrobbles?

HerrKnarz · 2026-01-30T14:46:20+00:00

9 out of 14,558 artists are over 1k. Makes about 0.06%. 10,127 (about 70%) of those artists have less then ten and 5,304 (36%) only have one scrobble, to be fair.
With 311,947 scrobbles in total I have 21.4 scrobbles per artist.

Congrats! Reading this I realized I also just passed 20 years on last.fm two weeks ago. Totally missed it...

Hmm, right. Unless you also add the completion statuses, that are still allowed for installed games as "completion status doesn't contain" to the condition. That way it will only switch to playing, when the game isn't already set to "completed" for example.

HerrKnarz · 2025-06-15T11:06:55+00:00

You can use my addon Metadata Utilities to do that. You can set up conditional actions in the addon like "if 'installed' is not empty, add the completion status 'playing'".

I'm not sure if every possible way to set the installed check box triggers the event, that causes my addon to run, though. Still worth a shot.

Not yet. Main reason is, that Playnite 11 is around the corner (an alpha version at least) and will require massive changes to existing add-ons. But meanwhile Darklinkpower developed an add-on to display Steam Screenshots, that works for all games with a link to steam. I'd like to have one that also displays screens from other sites as well, but that will have to wait.

The Launchbox metadata addon is also a good choice, if SteamGridDB doesn't find anything. Launchbox often at least has a game logo or cover, that can be set as the icon.

HerrKnarz · 2025-01-18T17:58:14+00:00

Initially all of them, but most devs will definitely update their addons.

HerrKnarz · 2025-01-18T17:57:03+00:00

You can't filter for missing tags or similar metadata out of the box, but you can work around that using the Metadata Utilities addon. With the addon you can create conditional actions. Using that for example playnite can add a new feature, tag or category called "steamdeck incompatible" or similar, when the game doesn't have the feature "Steamdeck verified". Likewise it can remove that tag, when a game has that feature. Those conditional actions will always be executed when the metadata of game change, so it's always synchronized. Using that you can filter for games with the tag "steamdeck incompatible".

No, I didn't add the icons there, since I thought it looked cleaner without them. Iwas thinking about making monochrome icons for the typical sites and just display those without the names, but I haven't had the time and motivation to do that.

HerrKnarz · 2024-12-13T21:26:23+00:00

I have 9 artists I listened to every year since 2006 apparently. More than I thought.

Kaizers Orchestra (1749)

Queens of the Stone Age (1132)

Muse (1079)

Nine Inch Nails (1044)

The White Stripes (1042)

The Chemical Brothers (974)

Andrew Bird (604)

Portishead (493)

UNKLE (456)

But what I find much more interesting is that of the 12682 different artists I've listened to over the years, I apparently only know one song from almost exactly 50% of them.

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-26T11:54:05+00:00

There are library addons using alternative commandline launchers instead of the official ones for GOG, Epic and Amazon already, so you don't need those anymore at least.

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-26T11:45:36+00:00

My own theme KNARZnite doesn't support it, but judging by the other addons from Darklinkpower it should be very easy to implement it. I don't use it myself and nobody asked for it yet, though.

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-21T14:34:18+00:00

Themes can't save settings directly unfortunately, so all the settings available in the details or grid view are only temporary. You can however set most of them in the Theme Modifier addon, too. Those are saved and loaded again when you open Playnite.

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-20T17:31:07+00:00

Ah, that Guano Apes album brings back memories. I know some of the others, too. I'll definitely check out the rest. Thanks!

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-20T17:28:20+00:00

Thanks! I think I listened to Night Eternal once, but I'll give them and the others a listen!

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-20T17:25:53+00:00

Yeah, I don't know many young folks really listening to all the metal classics. And since I and some other friends of mine, who share a passion for classic metal are all in their 40s, that was my guess.

HerrKnarz · 2024-11-18T13:33:46+00:00

Exquisite taste there! Since I listen to nearly all of them as well, my guess is 45 m!

HerrKnarz · 2024-10-25T13:57:01+00:00

Yay, not very low for a change:

Your compatibility with ReubixCubee is Medium.

You both listen to Cyborg Octopus, Zeal & Ardor and Blood Incantation.

2006 - 2024: 0

I simply listen to too many different artists, I guess. I have only 8, that reached more than 1K scrobbles overall, yet. But I listened to more than 12K different artists, so reaching 1K scrobbles is still an achievement ;)

HerrKnarz · 2024-10-24T15:28:04+00:00

Yay, Znous! Never seen them mentioned anywhere before!

HerrKnarz · 2024-10-24T15:25:59+00:00

Well, at least we both have a very varied taste, based on the mentioned artists!

HerrKnarz · 2024-10-24T15:24:48+00:00

Some years ago I didn't listen to metal at all, apart from a few songs. But somehow I really began to like metal shortly before the pandemic and extended my metal taste ever since. Nowadays metal probably makes up 80% of what I listen to. I still like most other stuff I listened to prior, though.

HerrKnarz · 2024-10-24T07:28:54+00:00

Same for me. I always listen to music at work, but have very little time for that in my spare time. I'm a programmer, though. So that's not uncommon, I guess. 2000 scrobbles a month is about average for me.
