>•What do you use for tracking progress of shows you watch?
Nothing, I just delete whatever I already watched from my hard drive and I know what I haven't watched just by being there.
>•What are the pros and cons of how you’re tracking your shows, and is it worth it to be tracking shows this way?
The pro is that I don't have any hard data that could be harvested on an website. The con is I can only rely on my own memory to remember what I have watched.
I used to track my music/tv/movies/games but I don't really care anymore, it was that obsession with tracking that made it easier for me to trust platforms with my data (back in 2008 until like 2016 I tracked all that shit on last.fm, facebook, etc). I know there are self-hosted options now but as I said I don't care enough anymore.

Thanks for taking your time to answer the questions I provided there. You're the first one to do it and I'm glad you did..... + Yeah, honestly, I'm losing interest in tracking too, not that I ever had THAT much of an interest either in it... I'm starting to care way less now... I mainly use AniList and I have only been recently using it to find out more great anime and talk to people about different anime and learn their opinions. I'm using it more for these reasons rather than for tracking stuff honestly
