What Ratelog actually does
Ratelog is a self-hosted web application that functions as a movie tracker and rating tool, offering an alternative to commercial platforms like Letterboxd. It allows you to log films you have watched, assign ratings, and maintain a personal record of your cinematic viewing history. The project is distributed under the AGPL-3.0 licence and is containerised for deployment.
Best fit: This is a suitable tool if you want to self-host your movie tracking data rather than relying on third-party commercial services.
Worth knowing: With a small community and repository footprint, you may encounter edge cases or a lack of extensive documentation compared to more mature media management tools.
Deployment notes
As a Docker-based application, you will typically need to configure persistent volume storage to retain your user data and logs across container restarts.
