I hate how Letterboxd turned watching films into homework — so I built a film diary that's a wall, not a feed
I built this because logging films always felt like homework to me — the ratings, the reviews, performing for a feed. it had me watching for the scoreboard instead of for myself. I just wanted something that quietly keeps the films I cared about.
so I made the opposite, on purpose:
- you develop a film (the poster fades in like film developing) and it lands on a private wall
- no ratings, no followers, no feed — that’s the point, not a missing feature
- at year’s end the wall is just the films you kept. a keepsake, not a scoreboard.
it’s iOS, launching soon, and private by default — nothing’s public unless you choose to share a wall.
might be a problem only I have — genuinely tell me if so. and if “no ratings” sounds wrong to you, I’d like to hear why.
