    Oh, I had no idea Goodreads was owned by Amazon. Thanks! I’ll definitely make a switch.

        Movies: Letterboxd

        TV Shows: Serializd

        For books, I too use Storygraph. But I might switch to Hardcover later. I have been using Storygraph for like 3 years and in that time nothing really changed, improved there in my opinion. Socialization is almost non-existent. They still don’t have “profile” pages for authors. If you click on an author, all of their books are just thrown in there together in one place. No filters, no picture of the author, nothing.

        Hardcover looks interesting, it’s a bit like letterboxd, that’s why I like it. App is a little bit slow and I wish more people used it because there is not a lot of reviews and ratings for books. So if you want an alternative to goodreads, which has a lot of users, then storygraph is probably the only option.

          I used to use Hardcover but stopped after realizing they use AI-generated art on their platform.

          I love letterbox, but not really a replacement for IMDB.

          I’ve been using tv time to track tv shows, but haven’t really been a fan. Definitely going to check out serializd.

        I’ve used trakd for a number of years with no major complaints. Its cools being able to look up an actor and see the “seen in” section, as I have it set up to automatically track my watches in jellyfin/IINA and then I manually enter the ones I watch on streaming services
