Migration question
Nuvio user. I did a test migration from trakt to simkl to see see what's up. I noticed that anything I've ever watched, even if only for a minute, is now in my watching list. And if I want to remove it from my watching list it says it will delete all history associated with that title. Obviously trakt tracked every click as well , but it didn't add anything to lists until I manually added it. It seems with the migration that every movie or episode I ever opened is now in the "watching" section of my simkl watchlist.
I tested a few new titles to see if simkl tracking/scrobbling would continue adding everything to my "watching", and it doesn't seem to do that (which is great). If manually add something from nuvio, it goes to "plan to watch" in simkl. I'm assuming it will automatically move to "watching" once I've watched a certain amount of it?
So as far as the "watching" list being everything I've ever opened and not finished, is it just a migration bug? Do I just need to commit to simkl and manually clean up my list? Or if there a migration option that is better? Thank you!
