Why I built a distraction-free video platform for deep academic and technical study

Hey DEV Community! ๐Ÿ‘‹
โ€‹I built CROWN, a video platform designed specifically for academic, engineering, and deep technical learning, free from the algorithmic distractions of traditional video platforms.
โ€‹๐ŸŽฏ Why I built it
โ€‹Mainstream video platforms are built to maximize view time through entertainment, memes, and clickbait. When studying complex engineering or programming topics, algorithm recommendations and toxic comment sections often break focus.
โ€‹โœจ Key Features
โ€‹Distraction-Free Focus: Dedicated exclusively to educational and technical content.
โ€‹Timestamped Notes: Take personal study notes linked directly to exact video timestamps.
โ€‹References & Sources Tab: Dedicated section alongside the player for attaching papers, documentation, GitHub repositories, and scripts.
โ€‹AI-Moderated Discussions: Keeps comments constructive, technical, and free of toxicity.
โ€‹Direct Creator Support: Built-in support system for creators publishing high-value knowledge.

โ€‹I would love to get your feedback! If you create technical or academic content, feel free to sign up and test publishing your videos.
