Now with Trakt doing their best to get rid of their non-paying users, I’m looking for self-hosted alternatives to track my movie/show catalog and my progress in watching it.
So far, I’ve found:
- devfake/flox - the original, hasn’t been updated in 5 years
- Simounet/flox - fork of flox - started further development early 2024, added ActivityPub, reviews and some more features
- MediaTracker - “highly inspired by flox” and also tracks books and computer games
These all come with (one-way) Plex integration to track what you’re watching.
Before trying all the other ones mentioned in MediaTracker’s README - is anybody using one of those already? Or some similar product?
EDIT: Suggestions from this thread:
I think I tried out mediatracker but switched to watcharr because of how much faster it was but I just tried out the demo for mediatracker and it seems to buy much faster than what I remember maybe will try it out again
I use mediatracker but later versions seem to load a lot slower. I have mine pinned at version 0.2.5. The demo looks like an even older one.
Ok thanks. I’m pretty happy with watcharr at the moment.
+1 for Watcharr
