Looks nice and sleek. You did a great job.

I also think you really need to hammer home how Serialzd sets itself apart from Trakt which already ticks just about every bullet point you mentioned.

Best of luck!

Thank you so much! I'm assuming you've used Trakt before. I love their platform. What would make you want to switch from Trakt to Serializd, personally?

I'm probably the wrong target audience simply because I'm not much of an early adopter and beyond Reddit, I'm not on social media.

That said, I've thought the comments section of Reddit could make a great alternative to Disqus on websites.

Reddit has a built-in audience of millions and there are already tons of "official discussion" threads on both r/television and r/movies you could tap into. It's just an idea and probably not even feasible for a dozen reasons.

Thats a good idea! Maybe there's some kind of integration I can look into. Thank you for the suggestion!

Their is already a popular website / Mobile App/ Discord / Browser extension by SIMKL.

Why is their a need for a new one?

Also, It only provides TV, what about Movies, Anime, Manga, Games?

I say better stay with SIMKL, as it provides various amazing TV features as well like

  • Custom List
  • Shareable Profile link
  • Calendar
  • Shows Airing Today
  • and many more

I understand there's already different apps that do similar things. I built Serializd because I needed something with all these features, but also a good community. Also, I can't speak to other apps' features and UI, but I'm quite proud of the set of features and the visuals of Serializd :) I'd recommend giving it a try and judging for yourself

Yeah, the website does look clean and good dedicated only for TV community maybe. I hope you have a good luck on the product development.

You should also create like filters for discovering more shows based on few genres, locations, etc

I like it, but the layout feels really similar to Letterboxd. Are you sure you won’t get sued?

I was actually thinking about this recently.

It's so annoying not remembering which episodes you've watched. There are some sites where you can track already, but I'm not sure if they have apps.

Thanks, will check this out.

Not sure about what? I am pretty sure, all famous tracking website have Mobile App.

What website were your using in the past.

But.. they dont?

Check the top few hits for "track TV shows".

The top hit (trakt) doesn't have one for Android (I have a Samsung).

The one I was using, trackseries.tv doesn't have one either.

>track TV shows

Who uses trackseries, the website looks soo outdated. I personally recommend: SIMKL Tracking For ( TV / Movies / Anime )

And Yes, It also provides you all the apps that you need: https://simkl.com/apps/

  • Android / IOS / Windows
  • Browser Extension
  • Discord Bot
  • Media Tracking Services
  • And many more...

🤣 are you seriously kidding me? Looks like you are having a misunderstanding

Do you know how reddit even works, Voting is an anonymous function on reddit.

I'd recommend offering viewing options - I always prefer lists as opposed to icons/posters etc.

cinnamonbuncake OP t1_j9tws5i wrote

Could you elaborate a little more on what you mean?

Blokie13 t1_j9uf0t1 wrote

When viewing my shows, it displays them as posters/pictures, so you have to know exactly what the poster looks like for the show you're trying to click on, and there doesn't seem to be an option to change that view to e.g. list the shows in text format using their names instead.
