I have a question: Are there any plans to add the possibility of downloading Listal lists as stripped-down versions, including, for example, just the film titles added on the lists and their release years (no ratings, no pictures or other stuff)? Perhaps as .txt files or something like that?
It would be nice to have an easy way to back up list content for future use, in case the site goes down or gets cyber-attacked or something like that.
For example, Rateyourmusic has the possibility of saving all the user's ratings in simplified form for printing purposes. In rateyourmusic this includes the names of the artists and records, your ratings, and tags. It looks something like this: ilarge.listal.com/image/8337850/968full-my-profile.jpg
(The text isn't that small in reality, but you get the idea.)
I've downloaded some of my own lists and some lists by other users in Listal as pdfs but it's sort of clumsy and takes forever and also includes lots of stuff I don't need (like pictures and ratings).
And for some reason Listal's own pdf download option is not working, at least not on my computer.
The stripped-down version with only the titles would be a useful addition, at least for me.

For now, I have resorted to saving custom list pages to my Google Drive (in Chrome, Print - Save to Google Drive), but it's like saving to PDF, and like you say it's sort of clumsy!
