Yes, absolutely. I just realized that removing this information would even be beneficial. Actually, I'm removing it right now :)


Actually, this is a quite reasonable remark about the name, we should have elaborated on this part. We will change all names to anonymous.


We will definitely add this possibility, thanks for the feedback


Send us a request with your email to info@unschooler.me. Or just send a message to the chat on any page.


Thank you, I am on the chat right now and also sent an email


We've deleted all information about you. Thanks for giving it a try :)


Thanks for being so quick :)


Yes, we use standard firebase auth service and display the avatar and profile name. This is my profile https://unschooler.me/profile/lena-dorogenskaya-1578. Also, under the hood we are analyzing tags of videos that users liked. Without this, the prediction is impossible. Actually, I don’t know how photos appeared in the scope, it must be a mistake or default settings. We will fix it.


It is not a mistake of application scope settings. The text is in your privacy policy, verbatim.


I see. In this case, it only applies to the profile picture or avatar.


You have to understand everything in this looks like a Russian play to harvest personal data, likely in an effort to create more believable puppet accounts on social media.

Can you at least confirm this is the case and not try to play it off like it wasn’t?


Interesting thought, thanks for sharing. But I disagree, it doesn't look like that.

I can confirm that we are not Russian and use the Google firebase authentication service with default settings, like Canva, Figma, Miro and any other online tool on the Internet.


While making learning platform, we noticed the four types of lecturers:

1. Boring with humor-free monologues. 2. Interesting lecturers talking to their audience like David J. Malan. 3. Exciting lecturers started from a question like Robert Sapolsky. They repeatedly returned to the audience examples, making a live lecture more engaging than a recorded webinar. 4. Richard Feinman. Just an incredible level of humor and clarity.

Considering the longread or youtube video as a lecture form, there is no opportunity to engage readers besides comments, but people mostly do not tend to comment. Honestly, comments on youtube are not for conversation, but for wit contests.

On the contrary, tests and quizzes force active thinking because the purpose is to answer. But there is a lack of information.

We crossbred longread with tests and Feinman by making the publishing platform with interactive tasks. Each task combines questions, answers, challenges with a content. And everyone will have the opportunity to learn something by explaining according to the Feynman learning method.

What do you think of this approach?
