The reason could be that Trakt integrates with media server apps like Jellyfin or Plex, or apps like Kodi, and that you can thereby bring your watch history with you across apps and you don't lose it if your server crashes, library is corrupted or something... I have never used it, but I'd imagine that'd be a reason to use it. If I knew of a libre alternative, I'd actually consider using it for Jellyfin.

That was awesome! Thanks

Why is tmdb better than trakt for you? I don't know much about either service.

I’ve always felt a little dirty using Trakt. Can’t wait to try this. Thank you!

I've been using Showly a couple months now and it's not so much the trakt features that bother me it's the fact i can't backup or import/export a csv file or something i could store in a cloud. I'd rather take a year or two to teach myself how to fork the app and add what i want than ever sign up for another service.

EDIT! I take that back! Showcase has a link to look something up on JuatWatch!

Thank you so much for the recommendation, I can replace JustWatch now, that's one more proprietary app gone! And the interface looks excellent!

I wish either would show me where I can watch things like justwatch, but I guess if I'm transitioning more towards piracy it doesn't matter.

But if there's a way to watch something without pirating it, it's nice to know where I can do that. I recognize that'd be massively more difficult for an open source project though

Do any of these services make recommendations for what you can watch next? The way Last.fm shows what other similar people like.....it would be good to have something like that for TV and movies tailored to my tastes.
