      Did you manually collect data about what you were listening to or does spotify have an API for that ?

      This is perfect timing! I just requested my data last week!
      How can I access this?

      Does the color and/or Y axis represent genre or something else?

      Heads up homie – your mobile site is nearly impossible to read with the animated white tree thinger in dark and light mode

      I’ve been commenting the link everywhere but it seems like any comment with the link gets filtered out. You can access it at ripplify dot io. Maybe that will work 🙂

      Generate your own at ripplify (dot) io! (Links in comments are banned apparently)

      In case it’s not clear, the X axis is time, and the height of each artist represents how many song plays from that artist you were doing at a given time.

      I think the visualizations it outputs are really pretty and encapsulate lots of powerful moments. For my graph, I can see how friends and former girlfriends have introduced me to new artists, and how I listened to almost exclusively religious music in 2014-15 followed by a sharp dropoff when I left that community; I immediately recognize my middle school emo phase listening to the holy trinity of Fall Out Boy/Twenty One Pilots/Panic! At The Disco, and how I was introduced to Bob Dylan and various 70s/80s rock by my favorite high school teacher in 2016, or how I listened to substantially more music overall when I took time off from college during early COVID, and then got busier again once I returned to classes… etc.

      I know those specific moments don’t mean anything to others, but I think this graph format makes it really easy for these kinds of poignant insights to pop out, and I would love to know what you all observe in your own generated graphs! 🙂

      Please let me know if you notice any bugs in the website or have other thoughts! I’m working super hard in evenings and weekends to make this service the best it can be and your feedback means the world! <3

      Everyone is saying how “easily” you’ll find it online. Can someone just link it please?

      Please consider updating Step 2 (“First, visit Spotify’s Privacy Settings. Scroll to the bottom section, ‘Download your data.”) to say “Don’t download the data yet!” Because I went ahead and requested data on Step 2, not realizing Step 3 asks you to make some important adjustments to the download request. Now I’m stuck waiting on Spotify for a copy of data I can’t use for the app and will have to start the process over again.
