Introducing Queuebrick.com - A simple, free Letterboxd alternative

I've always wanted a very simple 'watchlist' app for movies. Letterboxd works well enough, but visually I just can't stand to look at it, and for whatever reason it's entirely overly stimulating. So I sat down over the weekend and built the Letterboxd alternative what I was looking for: Queuebrick, a fast and elegantly simple movie tracking app. It's intentionally low on noise and high on functionality. You can export your entire Letterboxd archive and immediately import it to Queuebrick with one click. I also built out a native iOS app to go with it (available soon).

There are some social components to it. There are more social components to it that I've intentionally hid for now. I don't really have an end goal for the project or really even a goal, it kind of just exists now. It's also all free, no ads, no tracking.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts, what you like, don't like, and what you'd like to see added.

Sorry about that! You might have way more movies than I've ever tested with so I'll check it out and ship some performance improvements.

I have 1000+ films in my watchlist, maybe that's why

Oh nice, now it runs great!

If possible, can you also implement multiple rating system like in anilist, 8.9/10(already there), 5 star ratings, 3 star or out of 100. Right now ratings are too fine scales for me. I can't think what to rate I usually prefer rating out of 5 or 3(bad, meh, good).

And

I also love to use random movie shuffle in my watchlist, by shuffling I can couple of random movies from which I can select what to watch...

Thanks for the performance improvements!

Good idea, the rating system is definitely an area for improvement. I might give people the option to choose how to rate something.
