I like the wide variety of short films here. I especially appreciate having access to some East Asian content I otherwise would never be able to find, about half of which I browsed was animated. The app is easy to navigate though it is a bit glitchy showing your history, a little annoying since I intended to go write reviews of what I watched after watching a handful of them.

Some amazing short films - app design is great and I’m really surprised this doesn’t have more reviews / hope it blows up. So far a week in I’m loving this and nice break from YT
Niche but fantastic
