For the most part I was just on site that compares how your lift compares to others. While I know that is a not great to do. Still kind of fun to see where I am at.
I use strengthlevel.com
It will differentiate between dumbells and barbells. So for dbs you'd only use the weight of one and be able to directly compare it to others.

Lots of exercises don't directly compare to eachother 1:1 when using dbs vs a bb. The movement itself is slightly different, you can compensate more with your stronger arm, you're using more/fewer stabilizing muscles getting into position is different, etc. In general, you'll be able to move more weight with a barbell than the combined weight of the dbs.

I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness.
