This seems thoughtfully put together. In particular I love the idea that your short recommendation algorithm is stored locally and is modifiable! I'd really love to see a lightweight "social network" that serves as input for an open recommendation engine and has more meaningful input, and can be focused into sub identities a la W3C hierarchical DID Like, here is my "enjoys watching mechanic and machining videos" identity, and here is my "likes watching longform documentaries about the following topics" and here is my "music videos / music discovery" identity, And you can find whatever admixture of various identities and use-info from other people who share their recommendation algorithms to find highly rated/engaged with videos in similar veins. Does anyone know of projects along this line?

That's cool. I will try to launch a web tool for it.
