Trakt heavily deletes posts in forums, Sub canceled

I’m aware that some people lose all sense of proportion in their feedback, but I’ve just experienced how, even when you’re angry but still within reasonable boundaries, posts get shamelessly deleted (with a reaction time of less than five minutes from Saturday to Sunday). You can also exploit that while cynically acting as if your news makes everbody happy. The number of deleted posts speaks for itself. So it’s no longer enough to force your long-paying users to do something and then use their money against them—now we also have censorship of the minority (which apparently isn’t that small if posts have to be deleted). What’s going on at Trakt is simply cynical, and today, after almost 10 years, I canceled my subscription immediately after this experience because I refuse, on principle, to give money to people like that. It’s a shame that people like that were given this opportunity, especially considering how little they deserve it with their ignorance, even though users were far too loyal despite so much incompetence. My post to them was nicer, but it doesn't matters anyway.

I'll go for self-hosting now. Check out https://github.com/ignisda/ryot and Yamtrack guys. Vote with your wallet guys, they don't deserve your money. And tell everybody about it, like you told them that Trakt is awesome, while it was. But now it's over.
