Hey everyone,

It’s hard to believe it’s been over three years since Plug DJ shut down. For so many of us, those were unforgettable times, filled with music, friendships, and community. While it feels like the golden days are behind us, there’s still hope to keep the spirit alive.

I may not have much to offer, but I wanted to share https://cord.dj of the last living alternatives out there. If you’ve been missing the vibe and connection, let’s bring the magic back together. Join us, and let’s rebuild this amazing community we all loved so much!

Hope to see you there ❤️

I made a playlist exporter to let you revive your playlists, if you forgot to back them up in time.

with the introduction of the Search All Playlists feature, when you opened a playlist, plug stored a cache copy of it on your browser (in "localStorage"). HOWEVER, this data is only accessible to sites running on the domain "plug.dj". As "plug.dj" automatically redirects to blog.plug.dj, I came up with a way to bypass this. To run my exporter, we need to make your browser think the exporter website is plug.dj. Because hijacking a website can be abused by scammers to steal passwords, your browser will warn you about this attempt.

Find details here https://p0ne.com/rip-playlist-exporter/ I recommend looking at the GIF album that's linked at the bottom of the page

Holding playlists for ransom is the last straw.

ITT: Recommend alternatives to plug.dj please.

I'll go look for some myself now.

See the title of this post. Extremely annoying.

It is so strange, that no one wants plug.dj to be revived, even though a lot of people were happy about this site. And till this day nobody wants to do anything with that? Is it really so expensive nowadays to run a site? The idea itself was and is amazing and no one of alternatives even till this day is better than plug.dj. What do y'all think?

Hey everyone! I’m Berk, the developer of metaDJ — a passion project and spiritual successor to plug.dj. I'm building a modern, community-driven platform where music and social vibes come together again. And I'm super excited to share the latest update with you all!

Thanks to everybody at plug for an awesome music listening experience. I've discovered well over 200 awesome new songs and have met some really awesome people. Thanks guys.

Upon popular requests (2) I made GIFs of the plug.dj avatars (all avatars since summer 2014). There are 267 avatars in 4 variations (standing, standing cropped, dancing, DJing). Sadly, Imgur didn't like me uploading 267x4 gifs (75MB), so I uploaded them to Dropbox instead. Dropbox doesn't seem to offer an animated preview of the gifs, so you actually need to select and download them and open them again (e.g. drag'n'drop into your browsers tabbar) to look at them. (click the blue download button in the top-right to download a gif / folder)

You might be able to use them as profile pictures on some pages, which is also why I made cropped standing gifs (bc i think they make good profile pics)

Update: I added the avatars plug used from 2012 to 2014 (sadly I don't have the halloween/winter specials, please contact me if you do)

btw, looking for a simple but good Windows GIF viewer? I recommend http://sourceforge.net/projects/gifviewer/

well, plug is shutting down again. lets just hope that plug.dj reopens because i literally can't live without it.

The RCS extension seems to have added a feature that allows for the use of your own API key, in addition to some of the other solutions out there. Seems to be the most polished so far. Simply install the extension at https://rcs.radiant.dj/. This works with Firefox as well as Chrome. By default, the system will use the API key that RCS has set up, but this faces the 10k per day limit. You can set your own api key by running /key [API_Key]. If you need to obtain one, the process is fairly straightforward.

Please fix this, Devs.

BAs will continue watching the thread to answer any last minute questions.
