- Header shows a live sync status (total videos + channels still backfilling, or
"paused"), polled every 30s
- Admins can pause/resume the background sync; a paused flag in app_state makes
scheduled jobs skip (migration 0006)
- GET /api/feed/count returns the number of videos matching the current filters;
shared filter builder keeps it in sync with /api/feed; shown above the feed
- /api/sync/status reports backfill progress, pending enrichment and paused state
- Language detection: classify one cleaned+concatenated blob (strip emoji,
@mentions, #tags, numbers, punctuation); fixes caps/emoji-heavy channels
(e.g. Nessaj -> Hungarian, no more bogus Chinese/Korean)
- Feed now joins the user's subscriptions, so unsubscribing on YouTube removes a
channel from the feed; periodic subscription re-sync job picks up changes
- Watched/Saved/Hidden views ignore the Shorts/live default-hiding so the full
set is visible (fixes hidden videos missing from the Hidden view)
- Persist feed filters + search across reloads (localStorage)
- 3D polish: cards lift with shadow on hover; chips/buttons get depth and a
press effect; undo toast lasts longer
- Shorts: confirm via youtube.com/shorts/<id> probe (SOCS cookie bypasses the
consent redirect) instead of a 60s heuristic; concurrent probing, shorts_probed
flag, scheduled refinement (migration 0005)
- Search: match title + channel name only (descriptions caused noisy results)
- Faceted tag filtering: AND across categories (language AND topic narrows),
OR within a category; any/all toggle applies to topics
- Language detection: majority vote over individual titles (fixes misdetections
like multipoleguy -> English; drops bogus Polish/Romanian)
- Login: drop forced consent so returning sign-in is quick (select_account)
- Feed cards: clickable channel name (opens channel), persistent saved badge,
undo toast on hide, Hidden view to restore; tag chips show counts in tooltip
- Tag and ChannelTag models + migration 0003 (partial unique indexes split
system vs per-user tag names)
- Offline language detection (py3langid) constrained to a curated language set,
with the channel's declared default language as a strong prior
- Topic tags mapped from YouTube topicDetails + dominant video category; the
generic "Lifestyle" catch-all is intentionally dropped
- System (auto) tags are regenerated idempotently and never touch user tags;
orphaned system tags are cleaned up
- GET /api/tags and admin POST /api/tags/recompute; scheduled autotag job
- Free per-channel RSS reader for quota-less fresh-video detection
- Recent-first backfill (configurable: 100 videos / 1 year) plus resumable deep
backfill from the uploads playlist
- Enrichment via videos.list: duration, view/like counts, category, topics,
language, Shorts heuristic and livestream/premiere classification
- Reusable sync runners + APScheduler jobs (rss / enrich / backfill), all
quota-aware with a reserve so backfill never starves fresh enrichment
- Manual triggers: POST /api/sync/{rss,backfill,enrich}
- Exact insert counting via RETURNING with in-batch de-duplication
