Hello, thank you for your feedback it is very much appreciated! The website layout was actually generated by the Rivyt platform. It was very easy to use and I really liked this specific theme for this idea as it shows all the details needed (from views, to release date and even even has the auto play feature). I would say another big benefit is the platform really wasn't that expensive so it made it really worth it!
I find the choice of a dedicated site as opposed to a vanilla youtube playlist interesting. The site definitely makes the experience of watching these more focused.
I expect there's some tradeoff with regards to discoverability and value that is inherent to large content platforms.
If YouTube provided capabilities for page/playlist styling, options to disable comments, and had a minimum of automated suggestions, would you still have created a separate page?
