Shuffl TV
Lean-back, cable TV experience for Internet videos
We were tired of the ENDLESS headlines about our President, and so we decided to build the "Trump Toggle", a button within Shuffl TV's Top news channel that allows users to remove all Trump-related coverage from their news.
What we ended up with... the easiest place on the web to watch the latest news coverage, WITHOUT TRUMP.
With absolutely no prior tech or coding experience, we leveraged some super powerful new platforms like Webflow, Zapier and Airtable (and a lot of Red Bull) to build an MVP for Shuffl TV that today is helping thousands of people discover the amazingly diverse world of digital video.

Really good start. I love concepts like this that allow me to just quickly flip from topics/channels as a way to quickly discover interesting content.
I'm sure you've seen https://neverthink.tv/ I use them quite frequently. One thing I like about them is they have non-conventional topics. Kinda neat to browse that way.
I also use https://www.haystack.tv/ to catch up on latest news/latenight shows. I like that you can fave shows/channels/topics you like and will prioritize those.
I dig the idea of filtering out content like the trump toggle thing.
Looking forward to seeing how this evolves.
Congrats and good luck!

Cool idea man, can we change the "Trump Toggle" to "Science Toggle" or maybe "Religion Toggle" or how about "Any Idea I find disagreeable Toggle"? That would be a cool feature. How about in the future maybe we could apply it across the whole internet and maybe even expand and build VR glasses that filter-out anything we see in the real world that we don't like - its like that old proverb, out of sight out of mind! Wow that would be an awesome future!
