Applebot loves YouTubeTranscript.dev 🤖 Our Cloudflare dashboard just caught something interesting: Applebot sent 26.95k requests last period. That's a 479.55% spike. AI crawlers overall hit 31.4k requests (152% up from before), but Apple's indexing our transcripts harder than anyone else. They're clearly building something with search and AI in mind.

Hey @marclou — quick suggestion for the feed: Right now it feels like a flat stream, and it’s a bit overwhelming to sift through. It’d be really useful to have filters like **Top (Today / This Week / This Month)**, similar to how Reddit structures content. That way, instead of just a chronological list, users can quickly surface the most valuable or relevant posts without digging through noise/spam. Even a simple toggle between *Latest* and *Top* would make a big difference.

See your MRR on split-flap display boards. Add trustmrr url and voila
