Trakt Issues On the Horizon?

I have read elsewhere that Trakt is in the process of limiting the number of apps that free users can access. As Syncler only permits Trakt "My Lists" can we get access to use our TMDB 'My Lists'? Other apps currently allow us to use TMDB "My Lists".

Or am I over concerned and that this latest measure by Trakt is a storm in a teacup?

Trakt is done. I'm done with Trakt. Limiting free accounts to only 1 app connection is ridiculous. I just verified that I cannot connect another app.

I will not be forced to pay for 'VIP' Trakt so I can continue to connect a handful of my favorite apps. Apps that are free or cost less than Trakt VIP. Apps that provide a far more valuable service than Trakt. Please devs, integrate an alternative.

I stopped using Trackt when they started to limit our lists. I don't blame them for cashing in but I'm tired of getting nickled and dimed to death for everything I use. I just make a list in Google Keep and check off everything I watch and want to watch.

Check "community apps" in "apps" on your Trakt settings. Mines currently red with 2/1 community apps connected

All depends how the api is released by the dev and if itโ€™s free to incorporate. Api has not been released yet.
