For our house all we need is Blippi, Ms Rachel, and Super Simple Play with Caitie! Maybe add some popular channels that can be shared with a quick link to use your tool. Or a way to chain them together with a simple UrL parameter ChanelID1+ChanelID2 etc
> Just select the channels you love, paste their IDs. [feature request] That's too technical. add all the other way to get to the chanell like https://www.youtube.com/@Disney https://www.youtube.com/Disney https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_5niPa-d35gg88HaS7RrIw and the youtu.be version and even paste one video and get the full channel. > No algorithms.

>> No algorithms > Why? I like algorithms. >> No recommendations > Not sugesting them is a huge win. Feels contradictory. They’re both just algorithms.
YouTube kids?
and also there is no option for me to watch the latest high rated videos by the creator's i like. screenshot: https://snipboard.io/acH8wg.jpg
Why only 16/32 videos per channel? Why not all? What’s the limiting factor here?
and also wanted to create a fun enough free account, with 256 videos in rotation. but a strong paid account with 1024 videos in rotation, which is almost around the movie/series rotation of a netflix account.
also youtube is there for everything the creators share, i just wanted to create a "filterable customizable sortable latest videos watching" companion to them not replace them, i guess that is also not allowed by the api usage.

I am currently using it on a spare apple device, airplayed to my apple tv, with the iphone screen off, video playing in background, and auto play of next videos. idk... seems like perfection to me.
I also appreciate this project because it's so cool that you had this idea and then executed on it. I have the ability to execute but I just don't have the ability to think of ideas :D. I def want to try and create something similar to this!
One suggestion would be to add another tool on the site that output's a channel's id when a user supplies a youtube channel's URL or just accept URLs in your channel id field and do the all the lookup of the channel ID in the backend. I know there are easy ways to do it while on the desktop. I wasn't able to quickly find a way to do it on the phone. Quickest way I found was to use a 3rd party site where I supply the URL and it outputs information about a channel including it's channel id. I am using iphone.

> i also like algorithms but i decided it was not for kids Yeah, I’ve only ever heard negative things about video suggestions for kids. I guess the key search term for those who don’t know is “Elsagate”. Normal looking videos that draw in kids with popular characters and then suddenly they are doing bloody surgery on each other or whatever. I don’t even know if there’s negative intent on the part of the creators or i…
>negative intent I think clickbaiting children in to a less-than-savory theme so you can get their ad revenue is probably enough negative intent to make me grossed out by them.
