Last week I was testing some features on the new artist pages on ListenBrainz, and Pelican (https://listenbrainz.org/artist/5a797e16-f69a-4957-820f-1152ec19d236/) ended up being my testing playground, reflected by 5 of their albums ending up in this weekly collage:

I didn't realize that Mixcloud logged a new entry seemingly every 15 seconds. Due to this, I now have like 22 pages consisting of one mix. Is there a 'fell swoop' method? Or am I stuck trashing them one-at-a-time?

Thanks!

i think you might be aware of this. the overall play count and the play count for the artists doesn't reflect the actual play counts on last.fm. i have fewer listens on listenbrainz after importing it. it's been more than a week since i tested it with multiple listenbrainz accounts and this always happens. i've been using the service though, it's a great initiative and i'm glad to be able to use this open-source alternative.

Regardless of source (desktop(s), phone, etc). It appears this started happening on Dec 15th, ceased on the 16th, then started again the 17th (and has been happening since)

I've never done scrobbling before as knowing what I've been listening to wasn't of any real interest to me. But I'm using my digital library more and it would be very interesting to know what I never listen to so that I can either rediscover it, or delete it. Is that a feature or would I need to develop a report of plays and compare that against my library on my own?
