Users who want to consume specific YouTube content for learning or productivity are repeatedly pulled into unintended browsing through algorithmic recommendations and autoplay. YouTube's native Watch Later feature fails to enforce consumption discipline — watched videos persist, and the surrounding interface keeps injecting new recommendations. Existing RSS readers lack proper video queuing and playback capabilities, leaving no clean middle ground between full YouTube exposure and abandoning the platform entirely.
