A Reelang+ feed built around what you enjoy (a better personalized feed)

Liked one space video and suddenly your whole feed is rockets? Your Reelang+ feed learns the kinds of videos you enjoy, whether that's vlogs, stories, sketches or slow lessons, and keeps the mix varied. A like means a little more of that, not a feed full of it, and a creator you just watched steps back for a while. Everything stays at a level and speed you can follow, and the words you looked up come back in later videos, spaced out so they stick.

This started with a few Reelang+ learners who told us their feed felt repetitive or pitched wrong. We piloted a new kind of feed with them, watched what they finished, skipped and liked, and learned a lot about what makes a feed feel right. Those lessons are going into the feed for every Reelang+ learner.

You can now access a new section under Preferences that allows you to see what Reelang thinks you like based on your likes and dislikes, and have control over adjusting it, both for topics as well as creators.

Getting this right is a mammoth task and will likely never be completely done, but we've added a new iteration of the algorithm here. As a general rule we want to make the feed as personalized as possible to Reelang+ subscribers' likes/dislikes, but when we need to make a choice, the videos you need to see for your language learning (e.g. because it helps you come across a word again we think needs reenforcing and we don't have a video that also matches your interest) this wins over your topic and creator preferences.

We'll keep refining this, and what you tell us shapes it more than anything. If your feed feels off, or you love where it's going, get in touch.
