the issue with loops is there's no algorithm. so I get 10 random videos that don't interest me and just one that does, almost.
that's not going to work long term for engagement. i already get bored on loops after like a minute.
that...sounds super healthy? where's the downside? lol
healthy? what do you mean by healthy. healthy for whom? the life of the app itself? because it won't survive without dedicated users.
if there is no algorithm to keep track of what users want to see vs don't want to see, they'll stop using the app in favor of apps that cater to their interests.
watching a random video of something I'm not interested in isn't particularly all that fun.
if an app learns I like anime and video games or specific types of content, then I'm more likely to use the app.
