Discover what you waste your time on YT - Social media

I created a way for anyone to see how much time they spent on various topics or content on Youtube. I tried it on my past two months of YouTube data, and the results were eye opening. I didn’t realize how much time I was actually spending on YouTube and the fact that most of it was just bullshit. I was expecting some bullshit but not that much 😕

Here’s what I found: I spent 7 hours watching movie clips rather than actually watching the movie 🙂 I have a tendency to get stuck in Science Explanations. Oh boy when I click on physics videos I just keep on binging for hours. Spent 14 hours on memes Entertainment was the primary thing that I used youtube for (28 hours) Out of 76 hours I had only 3-4 hours were Educational content 😆 It kinda made me think about how much time I waste just on Youtube ( not considering other apps) just watching bullshit content. The funny part is that I always had the feeling I was watching less bullshit and more educational content. Now that I see this upfront I am not sure how to feel about this and I'm wondering if I am the only one who was so sure he knows how he spends his time on but in reality has no clue, so I made a website where you guys can try it out yourself.

Really curious to see your thoughts on this and if there was something that was really unexpected. PS: The data is stored on the server as much as you want. You can delete the analysis or the account which will cause your data to be deleted.
