@kjosephabraham Thank you! This app is 100% free, so I just want to get a group of people who enjoy using this app and being more productive, focused, and satisfied online. After that, I have a few grander projects I've been working on and plan to launch towards the mission of building a better internet that makes us happier and get more done 😎

Hey Ernest! This sounds like a game-changer for anyone looking to regain control over their online time. The ability to block algorithmic content is a huge plus. How customizable is the tool in terms of which platforms and types of content it can block?

@alex_dulub It can block YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram and each can be individually toggled on/off. There are more customizations to come on types of content, but I'm waiting for users to give me feedback, so let me know which sites and types of content you'd like to block!

💡 Bright idea

I get the idea, it just hides all that! BUT can someone just make an AI that works for you by removing "trash" content that is not productive for us or more like multiple options or predefined level of "trash" quality!

@ardith I can definitely work on this as a feature! Hopefully social media sites start doing this themselves too... I'll start by trying to do this with comments. Glad we share the mission to make social media a more productive place with less trash 😎

Congratulations on the launch @nestolobo! Quite refreshing to have control over what I see online haha. Any idea how to solve mobile doom scrolling? :)

@laurenz_sommerlad Unfortunately this sort of content injection isn't possible on native mobile apps, but I'm working on another project to help with mobile social media addiction - stay tuned!

This is awesome! I always get stuck watching endless recommendations on Youtube. It would be so cool to get control over what I watch. Congrats Ernest!

@yulya_khakimzyanova Thank you! I have the same issue 😅 That's why I built this, especially after my former extension I was using stopped working with YouTube's new sidebar and end-screen video suggestions. Good luck on your upcoming launch and let me know if you have any ideas for how Escape the Algorithm can improve!

@nestolobo Actually wanted to ask if it will work with TikTok? Definitely would share it with my 12 year old sister :)

@yulya_khakimzyanova Yes, it does! I never use TikTok, but I'm a teacher and I know how addictive it can be for my students! Have her try it out 😎

I already consider myself quite mindful of algorithm-based apps (I have no Instagram on my phone, I don't use Twitter, Facebook etc) so I didn't expect much added value from this app for me personally. It still turned out to be wonderful for protecting me from those intrusive Youtube recommendations. Thank you and congrats on the launch!

@dimoire Thank you for checking it out! I built it specifically for YouTube as well because when they changed their interface my old extension stopped working. If there are any other sites that you think would be good to add, let me know 👊🏼

What a fun project! I guess it's hard to escape algorithm. Very fun project to show the world what's like without algorithm. Not gonna lie, I don't mind exploring new content based on algo. It would be cool to show content from youtubers you subscribe to though - I honestly see a lot of recommended content from subs. Congrats on the launch @nestolobo - fun project!

@tonyhanded That's a great suggestion, Tony. In fact, if you go to the youtube subscriptions tab, it still works! I'm still working on a similar feature on Twitter though to show the Following tab by default -- stay tuned! ⚡️
