Thanks, we really appreciate it! This is something we've been thinking about too. One of the things that we've noticed is that video reviews have a lot more effect on us than almost all text reviews, which are harder to fake (for now). We're thinking that letting people upload their own video reviews will help solve this problem as long as we can detect video deepfakes, but that's definitely not a complete solution (like you said though, not sure anything is).

tbf it's common for YouTube uploaders to be paid to advertise products that barely work
lol true, the state of youtube ads is pretty bad nowadays (although the raid shadow legends spam is gone from my feed now). Just places more emphasis on how much people trust the individual channel.
