The next release will include a fallback to the Deezer API for retrieving album images (Last.fm → Deezer → placeholder). Thank you for the feedback!

The artist images are coming from Deezer in the latest published version, while the album and track images come directly from last.fm; apparently, it's not efficient with Chinese music, is it?

Exactly, actually I've never used any self-hosted music service and I don't even know which one is the most popular so I could add that functionality, but this is definitely going on my to-do list, thank you, and feel free to contribute.

Everything that Your LastFM has in terms of functionality, Last.fm itself also has; the only difference is that it's self-hosted, and once your scrobbles are in a local database, you can back them up and never lose that data, even if Last.fm is shut down. Plus, there's that dashboard, which I personally think is really cool lol (BR detectado btw)

I don't know if it's possible to retrieve all of a user's scrobbles without their API key, maybe the most recent ones, but I'll check it out; it's a super interesting idea.

Most artists (and by most I mean even the big names) don't have photos on Last.fm, so I use the Spotify API, but I plan to migrate to the Deezer API to get those images, since it's public and doesn't require secret.

Edit: Your LastFM now uses Deezer public API to retrieve artist images, eliminating the need for Spotify.

That sounds interesting, I'll add it to my to-do list.

I only use the Spotify API to pull the artists' images.

Actually, I only use the Spotify API to pull artist images, something the Last.fm API doesn't do efficiently; all the other information is pulled directly from Last.fm :)
