I just noticed that tvtime.com is being shut down on July 15th.
Are there any good open source alternatives? So far I know about

Text has been pretty good for me I would say,. Before, I was using a site like you to track stuff, but after a website outage that had lasted months and me thinking I had lost everything made me swear to only use local solutions from then on.I have made myself a sort of format in plain text track TV shows and other stuff. Obviously, It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that the programs you are mentioning have, but it’s very flexible and I use it to track every type of entertainment that I consume (movie, books, games,…).
Mine is a bit flawed in some ways but advantageous in others. Basically just a table of one entry per line with columna for name, my score, date, progress, status (completed, watch/reading, dropped) and comments. Since they are just simple files I can sync them between my devices with syncthing, and edit them with anything that has a text editor.
If there is some new stat I want to track I can just add a column myself. Also have made some scripts to filter and sort enteies. (a bit unhinged)
Interesting:
The company blamed the expense of running the platform as a reason behind the decision, **but a shift to a more AI-focused business seems to be the real culprit. **

sftp. the answer is always either ssh sftp or http
Looks like there’s also Watcharr if you want to stick with piratey sounding apps.
How does Watcharr differ from Seerr?
Seems like they do the same thing. Track shows and tag them for later… acquisition.Watcharr is for building a backlog and recording what you’ve watched.
Seerr does let you build a backlog, but it’s more for the users of your media server to be able to request items for acquisition. Once approved, it sends the request to be automatically downloaded and added to your library.
Now since you have me looking… I installed Watcharr and it’s okay. Has a Discovery section. Easy to add things and mark them watched. But no stats, no integrations. It just seems a little barebones.
So I installed Yamtrack. The UI isn’t really as intuitive to me and there doesn’t seem to be a Discover function. BUT I love that it can track books, video games, and others as well. It also has Jellyfin integration.
I’m going to live with Yamtrack for a bit and see. It would be great to have a tracking app that also handles media requests. Seerr let’s you build a watchlist, but it isn’t all that helpful or fleshed out.
Watcharr has integrations for Sonarr/Radarr with requests (that isn’t as advanced as seerr though), also game tracking if manually configured.
And jellyfin integration too! Hope dat helps.
Oh! Good announcement. Thanks.
Might anyone know if there is a known way to export the “watched”/followed shows?
They’ll let you download your data.
Did not know, or care, they were still around.
The odd thing here is that you bother to make a comment that says you don’t care. What is that about? 🙂
Probably been in a serious car accident at some point or something.
