2025-01-08	Lo*****	I think downloading this app was like the best decision! My YouTube recommendation has immediately improved a whole lot cause I can't watch shorts that I genuinely have no actual interest in. The app has a timer setup too so if you do want to continue watching short form content you can instead keep it limited and the app will immediately kick you out of the video and I love it. The company is really nice too, they reached out to me to see how the app was running through their discord server!
