How it all began

On the first of July I read that TV Time was shutting down. Eight and a half years of my life lived in that app: every show I fell in love with, every episode I ticked off at two in the morning, every rating and every list. I was honestly sad, the way you are when a place that felt like yours closes for good.

Then I decided to do something about it. I knew how to build it, and I wanted more than just another tracker. I wanted a home for people like me, the ones who love series and movies and books and games with their whole heart. A place from one creative mind for all the others out there.

Welcome home.
