I love not being bombarded by ads thanks to pihole and adblockers. I don't have cable TV either. But without browsing netlifx/Hulu/etc. how do you actually find stuff to watch and discover worthwhile shows and movies to rent from my library?

trakt.tv via https://github.com/1RandomDev/showly-oss and https://www.themoviedb.org/ I'd prefer a more open alternative but afaik there's nothing that tracks movies and series at the same time.

For music, there's https://listenbrainz.org/ but I mostly listen to the old stuff and don't get flooded with new stuff.

Does showly oss scrobble watched Information for free. I was going to use trakt.tv awhile ago but am not paying a subscription just for that feature so I use another site? Is is showly just a way to view the data feed by trakt.

Edit: Should clarify scrobble watched data from Plex in my case.

[–] beta_tester@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

I don't know if plex can scrobble but showly uses trakt and jellyfin + trakt works

I didn't know about showly and gave it a try, syncing it to trak.tv. What does this get me that I don't get through trakt.tv by itself? What am I missing?

I use showly to add movies to my watchlist with two taps. I can hide items on showly, rate a movie quickly and comment on it quickly. I can sort movies. It provides a nice overview, imo. if trakt is enough, don't use showly.

Yeah, I was doing pretty much all that with trakt already, but wasn't sure if I was missing anything. I do like the ability to hide shows though.
