thinking about making a program that recommends videos that are on peertube. likes, titles, descriptions, and even closed caption can be collected locally and compared to the local users liked videos and watch time to rank videos the local user would like to watch.
later on there could be a server that people can willingly choose to send their data to build a better recommendation program.
I’m still in the research phase of this, but from my experience even implementing basic concepts would be effective
I know there is an anti algorithm crowd but this is opt in so this should be fine

But for Peertube instead of Lemmy? Sounds cool, I think Peertube needs it way more than Lemmy does
Peertube, Loops and Mastodon all need something like that way more than Lemmy.
Nothing wrong if it includes a libre software license text file. Even better if it could be peer-to-peer.
yeah i hope people build on my work and improve it since i doubt ill even have this project working anytime soon.
i have hard time concieving of p2p system for this. is it like heres what this person likes so do “X”
P2P file system over a centralised server, keep users in control.
of okay. i guess if i get to the point where aggregating data from multiple users then yeah ill look into publishing the data somehow, most of the data will be pulled from peertube instances
I have this list that I try to keep up to date: https://lemmy.wtf/post/15810205
I like the idea, even if it would be ‘just’ a small scale opt-in peertube search engine which would have better ranking algorythm with help of the data points you mention.
But I guess it would need to be opt-in for channels not for whole instances?
im thinking of something more like a browser extension that modifies webpage with recommendations, so far its 1 person (myself) then build up from there. i dont think peertube instance would have to be involved outside of just giving the meta data for local videos
Sounds good! Feel free to post on !peertube@lemmy.world if/when you want some testing done.
Part of the reason we started the community is the lack of discoverability. Now you can at least see what new videos are up and what the top ones are.
GL!
