librespot: Songs not showing up in Recently Played

When playing songs via Librespot, songs don’t show up in Spotify’s Recently Played.

This is with the following options:

--disable-discovery --username=xxx --password=xxx

Is this a known issue by any chance?

I’ve got the opposite concern. I would like a private listening session option so that listening to kids music via librespot doesn’t effect my profile. I obviously still want artists to get their credit but surely the API has a private session boolean that when enabled will still give artists their credit but doesn’t run the tracks through the listening algorithms.

Yes, it’s on the list for new-api. I haven’t had much time lately, but very much intend to pick up development again.

I created this issue as a last resort, I’ve been engaging with the supports teams over Twitter DM and emailing Spotify Privacy because of missing data, trying to convince them its their issue to solve 😅.

Are there related issues like this?
