I've made https://rankr.click

It's a little web application that allows for the ranking of all kinds of abstract entities. Think of the merging of Goodreads for books, Vivino for wine, Letterboxd for film, etc. This will allow you to instead rank whatever you want across a variety of different categories in a single place.

Using your rankings across all these different fields, you can draw analysis of what you like, and in future I'd like to add a little personal (not an ad) recommendation engine to help you find new stuff based on your actual interests across loads of different categories.

From a technical point of view, its been a great learning opportunity on how to fully host a complete stack using an opiniated, but cross-platform orchestrator, allowing me to host this wherever (bare metal VPS, homebrew system, cloud provider) in a flash.
