And it keeps getting worse. Before, videos I had already watched would have the thumbnail dimmed, with text on top. Now there's a thin red line under the video thumbnail that displays how far into the video I was last time.

It would be really useful to be able to go into a user's profile and filter out the videos you've already watched, or filter them at all.

It would also be nice to have a proper category list.

This is obvious functionality, that they must've left out on purpose. But why?

I'd love to be able to filter out videos I've watched that way. Speaking of which, I've noticed that the red line tends to disappear after a while, causing me to start videos I've already seen.
