What tool do you use for a personal reading list / watch list?
reddit / selfhosted

Hello,

I often come across media (books, movies, articles, documentaries,
etc) where I think *I really want to watch / read this*, but am not
able to do it right away. Currently I scribble it down in some Notion
list, which works semi-well.

Are you having any more sophistocated tool for this? Ideally it would
involve things like automatic metadata fetching, settings of tags and
priorities, etc.

Ideally it would be something like goodreads, IMDB or letterboxd just
for personal use and I could also browse past books and movies and see
what I enjoyed most and so on.

Thanks for the help!

For strictly managing a personal reading list, check out my project
[Booktracker](https://github.com/wars2k/booktracker). It's meant to be
a sort-of goodreads alternative, and it includes the things on your
wishlist like metadata fetching, priority, rating, etc (with lots more
coming soon!).

For an all-in-one reading/watch/tracking solution, I know a lot of
people really enjoy [ryot](https://github.com/IgnisDa/ryot), but I
haven't had a chance to play around with it too much yet.

I have only superficially tried it (I'm more of  a messy .txt files
everywhere kind of person) but
[https://github.com/IgnisDa/ryot](https://github.com/IgnisDa/ryot)
sounds like what you are looking for

Is there anything out there like this but just for YouTube videos?

I use a todo app for this.  I have a Read/Watch list and just add
things there.

I like this because it's super fast/easy to add something, I can sync
todos to all my devices via CalDAV, and I am regularly reminded about
them when I use my todo list. :-)

Is ryot a manual entry? Like a journal? Just making sure..
