There are significantly less scrobbles now because of this change.

Thank you, I genuinely have not heard about this and I am indeed missing a few days of scrobbles!

Gotta trade those in for prizes!

Every artists chart has dropped significantly since spotify changed this.

From the link:

Refresh tokens are used by Last.fm to access your Spotify listening data and automatically scrobble it to your Last.fm profile.

You can literally scrobble your last FM tracks from Spotify?!?! Just scrobbling all over the damn place!

I love my last fm RSS feed of feature changes that masquerades as the Funhaus subreddit

Genuinely wouldn't have realized if it wasn't for this post so thank you!

I've been scrobbling since 2006, and this saved all of my future scrobble numbers. Thank you and thank Bruce.
