    Man, I was just starting to switch over to Letterboxd because IMDB now requires I have an account to read reviews… If this goes through it’s only a matter of time before the enshittification begins. We need to create a decentralized movie/tv review site!

    Refused to use it. Advised other people to avoid it.

    The opposite of the fell-for-it-again award is a Cassandra. She’s like an Oscar, but for being right about bad things.

    Whew, I’m feeling pretty good for not using Letterboxd as I was considering moving to it a while back. The platform started off good but it kind of devolved into every review trying to be a funny one liner instead of actually reviewing the movie.

    I also found it very weird that Letterboxd doesn’t have any TV shows, it’s only movies.

      I only recently started using Letterboxd and I noticed the same thing about their movie reviews. Everyone tries to come up with the snarkiest comment that will get voted to the very top.

      They promised show support years ago but for some reason people were really insistent that LB should remain movie only.

    Cloudstream and its various extensions have allowed me to keep track of my movies, thank you very much.
