Friend of mine has been on wegovy and has lost almost 40 pounds in 4-5 months. It was almost discouraging to hear that as it has taken me two years to set the correct habits to lose almost 35 pounds (and keep it off).
The side effects of those drugs are real though. My friend says she constantly feels nausea and it’s weird to see her eat so little… When we go out I would be surprised if she even eats half her plate, if that.
It’s been a long journey for me personally to lose weight. I had to teach myself how to use gym equipment, cut out all sodas, and to suppress my cravings. To see people take what looks like “the easy way out” can sting… but in the end, I feel better then ever.

There was a couple of reasons that I switched a few years back but it really boils down to
-So much more customization for scoring. You can do 1-10 (down to the decimal), 1-5, stars or even smiley faces.
-Extremely clean interface that is way less cluttered then MAL
-Better mobile app support in AL-Chan
-More QOL that caters to the seasonal watcher
-More details about a show
Overall I think it does 99% of what MAL does but does it better. My only gripes with anilist at this point is that they don’t show the OPs and EDs like MAL does.
