My only issue with Spotify Wrapped is just how inaccurate it ALWAYS is, comparing it to my Last.fm account
Thats interesting. My lastfm and Spotify wrapped are basically identical. Every top song and artist are in the same order.
i checked my stats.fm top 2023 artists vs wrapped, and i'm seeing the same inaccuracies that you mention. my wrapped artists were:
while on stats.fm, it shows:
i think that spotify is definitely strategic with placing certain artists in certain positions. for example, "Artist F" probably was in top 5 last year as well (and is a successful but less-well-known artist), but went unlisted on wrapped this year and was replaced by Artist C, a global top 200 artist. and it worked - i had not listened to Artist C in a while, and when i saw my wrapped results, i started listening to them again.
