It seems you haven't watched much. Just 3 TV series and just 9 movies. I didn't know there even are people who watched this little in their lives.
By the way I once knew an magically amazing website to mark what you watched and discover what to watch. It was Jinni.com. It was an absolutely mind-blowing experience to browse. It would present you a collage of posters, you would mark what did you watch and how did it feel and it would suggest you movies/shows similar in various aspects (atmosphere, mood, specific themes in the plot, genre and more subtle ways). It also had a social function so people could share and see what others watched I can hardly describe how much I loved it, it was a perfect recommendation engine, no where to be challenged by any else existing to the day. For me it's a tragedy it closed and only makes money by selling their data to adtech corporations apparently.
I've watched 1000+ movies & shows. Just started to track them last month on my personal site.
I can always use IMDB or LetterBoxd but I want to de-risk loosing all my work if a 3rd party company tomorrow decides to shut down or gets hacked. With my own data, I always will have a backup and lifetime uptime guarantee.
Movie data isn't that valuable information to protect for an individual. Instead you can try making a contacts syncing software, or email storage, or even WhatsApp media backup system.

It's not about privacy, but loosing my data from a 3rd party hack or attack.
I can always backup my own code (json file) locally vs. asking letterboxd or imdb to backup my data.
Yes, but again, for most people, movie data is far less valuable than say contacts.
