To add to this for youtube the unhook extension is great to block everything other than search and playing vids
Then I permanently block youtube and reddit on phone. I've explored quite a few blockers - AppBlock for android is the best I've used / has no bugs on my now older s21.
I can't relate to this need to fully explore and then document everyone's history - I can have a conversation for an evening and forget everything the next day, and I'm happy with that, the truly important things (to me) will distill themselves naturally.
A case of different strokes for different folks I suppose.
Now ready to release https://mealplannr.io. The end game is no/low touch weekly meal plans sent directly to your inbox, with meals from the chefs you follow - with none of the hassle around planning the meals, shopping list etc (which I spend hours doing every week).
An important feature for me was improving the recipe discovery experience, you can build a cookbook from chefs you follow on socials (youtube for now), or import from any source (Web, or take pic of cookbook etc) - it then has tight / easy integration into recipe lists.
Utilising GenAI to auto extract recipes, manage conversions, merge/categorise shopping lists etc - as-well as the actual recommendations engine.
If anyone is interested in beta testing / wants to have a chat I'll look out for replies, or message [email protected]
If I were to guess I imagine the downvotes are due to the use of an upvote being preferred over (albeit it well intentioned) comments of "well done" in HN threads (in order to keep signal to noise ratio high)

"We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns"
Why would they ever make this statement, there's nothing to gain with that right?

Every interaction has different (in many cases real) "memories" driving the conversation, as-well as unique persona's / background information on the owner.
Is there a lot of noise, sure - but it much closer maps to how we, as humans communicate with each other (through memories of lived experienced) than just a LLM loop, IMO that's what makes it interesting.
I would say fairly substantially different for a few reasons:
- You can run any model, for example I'm running Kimi 2.5 not Claude
- Every interaction has different (likely real) memories driving the conversation, as-well as unique persona's / background information on the owner.

I find YT is only useable via the following combination of extensions these days
- Ublock (still works for me, maybe it's a Firefox thing)
- News feed eradictor (hides reccomended vids)
- Pocket tube (how subscription management should have been)
- Sponsorblock (auto skip sponsors which are typically gambling or predatory games)
