Yes, it still gives good recommendations of artists and albums. I rarely used radio on it when it was available. It was like a social network years ago but now social features are mostly dead.
There are no music streaming services available in Russia except Yandex Music which is very meh (no usable radio-like mode, poor collection) and semi-pirate vk.com (which is useful for exploring but not everyday listening).
Last.fm for me is one of the best sites from good old days of web, "Web 2.0" era, along with Flickr, it's very sad that we're losing them and moving fast into faceless unhuman mobile-first AI-driven adtech hell.
