~1 kiloviews now with 152:3 thumbs ratio, why would someone dislike this!?

I don't think I've ever seen a video with over 100 upvotes that didn't have any downvotes. That's just YouTube.

Clearly the OP knows this and is making a joke by adding a quintessential YouTube comment.

Pretty nice concept ! I don't get the "astronaut" part, though. What am I missing ?

Maybe because you're looking from the outside in, into regular people's lives?

Or maybe because an astronaut explores the space between the stars, and watching unwatched videos is exploring the space between YouTube "stars".

Then you get things like this: https://youtu.be/syiSYMPwFck

I couldn't even finish watching the video... once he said the letter "P" I switched off

But it got better at the end. Why did she say "do-da-didi-dam-di-doo"?

"Three people who *didn't make it off the streets disliked!!"

I created a very similar app:

https://alexgarces.github.io/loststories/

The titles of all the videos shown are random strings based on the default media file names of some popular devices, such as iPhone or Samsung Galaxy. Some examples of these titles would be IMG_8869.MOV, DSC 0711 or MVI 6710.

All the videos, requested in real time, are not more than one year old. They are almost undiscovered, usually with very few views (or not even one).
