I just find let's plays a lot more entertaining when multiple people are playing and chatting than when it's just one person rambling. But these are weirdly hard to search for!
As the title says. I'd like to track my movie/tv watching like I do my reading, if anyone knows of a good site for this?
I know I could just track it on my own with paper or an offline spreadsheet or app, but the social aspect of stuff like goodreads (and now bookwyrm) is important to me.
I have a lot of time to fill with audio, but audiobooks are challenging for me because I have trouble paying attention consistently enough and processing physical descriptions fast enough to keep up with the narrator. I end up losing my place or having to rewind a lot. Slowing down playback doesn't help/introduces other problems.
I'm also easily put off by narrators that have repetitive quirks (e.g. ending every sentence like it's a question, or doing goofy voices) or that read in such a flat and consistent way that it becomes droning. So my preference, by far, is for narrators who basically act the book like they're in an audio drama or a movie. This seems more often the case for first person books.
On a similar note, audiodramas with full casts and music or sound effects are especially welcome.
I'm looking for something short because that makes it much more likely I'll finish. Long series are fine though if each book ends well, not on cliffhangers.
YA and even middle-grade are fine.
I'll also take "so bad it's good" suggestions.
Scifi and fantasy are my usual go-to's, but I'll take any genre, especially since adult fantasy and scifi usually has too much description for my audiobook tastes.
Horror would be good. Or maybe a comedy? Something gripping. Page-turners.
Basically I just really need something entertaining but snappy and very easy to follow, with a narrator who sounds like they're acting instead of like they're reading a script.
I'm already aware of actual play d&d podcasts - those are sometimes great, but I can get tired od them after a while and I'd like to find more variety/options with this post.
Thank you for any suggestions!
Ublock Origin is an obvious one, but I also can't stand not having Foxy Gestures anymore. It adds customizable mouse gestures, so you can set it up to have easy swipes to go back a page, reload a page, close a tab, etc, and it feels wonderful and smooth to use compared to just using the traditional buttons to do everything. Honestly it's kinda wild to me that this isn't more popular now that people are so used to phone gestures. It's good for the same reasons!
And what specifically makes it special, appealing, or interesting to you?
