That’s why it should be asked, or even better, just answered in the README.
Text !
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)
