Recommendations are their method of control. Eshew the algorithm, curate your own choices of who you watch. also drastically reduces your exposure to slop.

My recommendations have been mostly fine and just keep the channels i regularly watch at the forefront. I've had my account for decades now so my subscribed feed is too much of a mess to wrangle now.

That saying, I do really miss the custom folders you could once make on YouTube. Back then I would categorise certain favourite YouTubers together and mostly use that. Using something like that again would be nice.

They also have this feature, you have subscription groups!

As for recommendations, it does one big sync once then anytime you open the app it seemed to sync everything (ime at least)

That alongside being able to sync a video to my PC at the exact timestamp is very nice for living room experiences. Bonus you can have peer tube sources show up next to your yt videos

I might have to properly spend some time to meeting about with it then. Is there an android tv app for it yet? (If you know off the top of your head, if you don't i don't expect you to do my research for me haha)
