you can use the tool by yourself if you want and you'll see
also you should go to Twitter where https://twitter.com/ThePeterMick the developer talks about the product and people interact with him and say what they think about it
what i tried to say in my post is that you can use social media to your own advantage as so many other people do - me included - and you can surround yourself with the right people and ignore the negative people who might make you feel bad and annoy you and this can have an impact on your self-confidence on social media. That's all.

That's a really big problem yeah. What if you were given the control to choose if you want to get more similar video recommendations in the future by checking a "recommend similar videos" box after you finish watching a video? Instead of the algorithm doing it by itself? Because sometimes you can watch a video and then you got everything you needed from it so you don't necessarily need to watch similar videos.
Youtube Premium removes annoying ads so the watching experience gets better that's for sure. But how about the content that the algo recommends to you? Are you satisfied with it?
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me! Well the engineering team at Youtube is working hard but still I cannot understand how the algo can still miss huge parts. I spoke with so many people on Reddit and there are so many different problems they encounter.
- They are used to watch videos about a specific topic and then if they watch 1 video about something else (let's say headphones for example) the algo forgets about their previous preferences and keeps showing recommendations about headphones.
- Some people get recommended videos they already watched before
- Some people don't really like Shorts so they would prefer if there was a way to toggle off so they won't see them anymore
The MVP is not finished yet so the minimalist landing page that I made for now is just there to validate the idea with potential users.
When it's done you can log in and use it with your own personalized dashboard.
I am currently making tests with Youtube Data API to fetch the most currently popular videos on Youtube in my local computer and it works. Just to get the hang of the API a little bit then I will start the real developing :)
