No endless lists. Just a fast decision.
I mean I could click on the first title on Netflix and quit scrolling. But it’s not what I want to watch. That’s why I scroll. You’re suggesting your app knows exactly what I want to watch, every time, based on some very basic input, and I don’t believe that, and I’m not willing to install it to find out.
The problem with Netflix (and every other platforms) is that they have this massive library of thousands of titles but they just show you the same fucking content over and over again.
If you had something that simply surfaced different titles, I could see that alone being useful.

I understand completely, and that’s a very valid point.
The app isn’t trying to perfectly predict every choice, and it’s not a magic solution. Even a few quick inputs won’t capture every nuance of a person’s taste.
What it does aim to do is surface options that the user might not see otherwise, breaking the “same content over and over” pattern you mentioned.
It’s meant to help reduce endless scrolling and decision fatigue, not replace personal taste or curiosity.
