Bringing friends to the forefront
Since Letterboxd is a social app, it makes sense that users would want to see what their friends are up to right away. Whether it’s a new review, a watched movie, or a freshly created lists, these updates are often the most interesting part of the experience.
Instead of hiding them behind tabs, everything is now front and center. And if there’s something you don’t care to see (like list creations or watchlist adds), you can simply filter it out. It’s all about keeping things open while giving you the control to tailor what shows up.
I’ve kept the like button off the review thumbnails 🤯
This is because of how notorious it is to get a like in Letterboxd and this will also make getting a like more meaningful.
