## Description

Hive Scrobbler quietly logs what you actually listen to and watch — across every site you already use — and saves it as one
  timeline that belongs to you.

WHY YOU'LL WANT IT

• One history, every platform. Music, videos, podcasts — Spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Netflix, Disney+, Max, Prime
  Video, Overcast, Pocket Casts, and more — all into a single log.

• Real listening only. A play has to cross ~60% (music) or ~80% (video) before it counts. Skipped songs and half-watched episodes
   don't pollute your stats.

• Yours to keep. Saved to a public ledger, not a streaming service's marketing database. Export it, share it, or just have it —
  your history doesn't disappear when a service changes its terms.

• No ads, no analytics, no telemetry. The extension never sends anything to a server we control.

• Free, forever. No subscription, no premium tier, no upsell.

HOW IT WORKS
<ol><li>Install Hive Scrobbler.</li><li>Click the toolbar icon and connect your account. Initial login is via Hive Keychain (a small companion add-on); more login
  methods are coming.</li><li>Play music or video as normal. Eligible plays save automatically.</li></ol>
That's it. No queue to babysit, nothing to set up site-by-site.

SUPPORTED PLATFORMS

Music — Spotify, YouTube, YouTube Music, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, Bandcamp, Amazon Music, Audius, Mixcloud,
  Audiomack, Pandora, iHeartRadio, SiriusXM
  Video — Netflix, Disney+, Max (HBO), Prime Video
  Podcasts — Overcast, Pocket Casts, plus Spotify shows

VIEW YOUR HISTORY

scrobble.life — your full timeline at /u/&lt;your-username&gt;. Music, movies, TV, and podcasts each have their own tab.

PRIVACY

The extension never sends data to a server we control. Saves go directly from your browser to the storage layer, signed locally —
   we never see your account keys.

Each save is a public entry on the storage ledger today. Privacy modes (private and friends-only history) are on the roadmap.

OPEN SOURCE

Forked from Web Scrobbler (MIT licensed) with the persistent storage layer added.
