Trakt.tv is offline indefinitely after database crash

The Trakt.tv web service is offline indefinitely. In the night from Sunday to Monday, the main database of the site crashed and part of the data was corrupted. It is not yet known when the site will be back online and accessible to users.

Trakt.tv leaves via a tweet know that a solution is being worked on. However, maintenance will take longer due to the scale of the data. Therefore, the web service cannot say when the site will be accessible again. The cause of the crash is also unknown.

Trakt apps and add-ons allow users to upload viewing data to the site. This way they can build a media library. This data can then be used to keep track of where a user left off in a series and to generate recommendations for films and series.
