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?

      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.

      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.
