    I didn’t fail, I actually succeeded. Plus judging by how hard it was to do a simple algorithm an algorithm like this would take way too much effort.

    Given from the infographic they didn’t even think about an algorithm let alone worked on it

      Seriously though, it’s literally already implemented. Might be too complex for you to implement, but apparently not for them.

        How do you know it’s implemented as described in the picture?

      “Because I did something substantially simpler than this, and struggled to get it done, they must be lying.”

        Lol you really don’t understand recommendation algorithms 🫵🤣

  What’s too complicated exactly? They claim their program does precisely that. I believe you could review the code yourself.

    oh lord your looking for a fight. i tell you this i kinda already won since your looking my input to criticize, but ill say this the personalized focus block alone. that’s an exact “thing” and if you want more well your gonna have to ask more specific questions and your gonna demand that i help you.

    also I helped loops in the past. I can tell you that the GitHub code isn’t the code that’s used

      really? given that the license is AGPL and they do have some external contributors, they shouldn’t be running an unpublished branch of the code!

        Yeap, turns out you can post junk code on GitHub and say it runs whatever. I never seen anyone independently verify that the GitHub code runs similar to loops or compiles the code for the app

      Not trying to fight, just wanted to get some perspective of someone critical in a thread where everybody else is very positive. Sorry internet discourse fried your brain.

        Nice so you got my perspective then?
