    They seem like very different products to me. IMDb will always be my go-to site for movie information whereas Letterboxd has a much better community feel to talk about everything movie-related.

    Letterboxd has a much better UI, but Trakt also offers television programs and more scrobbling options.

    I actively avoid services that have doubled down on committing themselves to AI-generated images and NFTs incorporated into their platforms. Simkl is one such service.
