Yes to this as well.
Suggestion: split up Favorites and Likes, or add icon for Watch Later
[deleted]
Hey guys, thank for feedback.
I think having separate likes might be confusing, but we could include a watch later icon on thumbnails, kinda like youtube used to have. What do you think about that?

Also requests for scripts is on a to-do, as well as coming soon section for scripts

[deleted] My original suggestion is more about making a separation between "I approve of this video" and "I want this in my collection", which SLR currently conflates. It's not supposed to be "like" and "also like". On VT you don't have a real way to look at what you've thumbs-upped, just what you've favorited for your collection. Right now, for SLR thumbs-upping is adding to your collection, so you have to keep what you approve, and vice versa.
Having a Watch Later icon would help and basically work the same way as "like" and "collect", but ideally it'd be something that you can click/unclick while browsing, like the current heart; I'd want it to be as convenient to use as hearting is now. Having it purely be visual and still needing to go into the menu dropdown to add things to Watch Later would be less usable.
Just chiming in to say the watch later option works well for me. I can put all scenes I intend downloading in there and remove as and when I’ve done that. This means I can leave all the likes on scenes even after downloading as I’m no longer using that as a tool to save videos for download.

petermc I think it's doable, but it's not nearly as convenient to manage the Watch Later list as it is the hearts, because you have to click on the submenu for every video when browsing to check whether it's on the list or not, and your focus has to switch from the submenu button to the Watch Later status in the menu every time, which is awkward. When using hearts, you don't ever have to context switch; whether something is in your collection or not is shown right with the video listing.
Having a visible icon for videos marked as Watch Later would help save on the video-by-video checking, and even better if it's clickable so you don't have to go to the submenu at all. Frankly I think if it's not as easy to use as the hearts, then most people will still gravitate towards using those to track their collection first.
had hard time finding hearted videos...when you reach hundreds and most are asian? WELL..you know what the saying is always been good with color tones and clothes that might help me find it...just gets tougher when the numbers are high or haven't been on in a while (few days
started taking snapshots....that will show the title
NOW? I un-heart it and heart it again...that way it keeps it on the first page of FAVs
i'm for enabling tipping and looking at a record of tips to help find them...that's what i do with cam girls
Todays Melody Marks scene is the perfect reason to do this. I badly want to show my love to Melody — she’s every bit the beautiful star mere mortals like me die to have face to face.
But the scene is so poorly conceived and directed, I had to undo the heart I had clicked before even opening the scene. Definitely not one for my favorites.

petermc well perhaps another much more useful way to approach this is to setup feedback ratings broken down into categories. Casting. Performance. Technicals. Premise/Setting, etc. The overall scene rating would be the average of the individual ratings, and all of this is separated from the add to favorites heart button. This way it’s possible to utilize favorites for the various purposes people do, and also provide specific measurable scene feedback to SLR itself. This way decision makers can see that a scene or series of scenes may get lambasted for technical problems, or what some see as poor directing choices, without that reflecting badly on a popular star who still gave a great performance.
Philip you forgot armpit and butthole rating
If I may please make an additional suggestion-- PLEASE stop using what I assume is red/green and use colors that folks like me with colorblindness can actually tell apart. I have to open every damn scene and check whether the background is pink or whatever on the actual scene page. The icons on the browse pages are useless

sixfgrs They're using pink and gray. That's interesting that it's so hard to tell apart for you; I wonder if it's because they're similarly bright. This could be also solved if the hearts in the browsing section were changed to be an outline when not selected, rather than just being color swapped, so you could tell by the shape that it's different.

I've tested using the Watch Later playlist rather than hearts to track my collection, and while it does feel good to contribute my tiny bit to the rating of the movies I like, it's definitely more painful to use. The biggest issue I have with it still turns out to be visibility; when browsing videos or looking at an individual entry, I simply can't tell whether it's on my Watch Later playlist unless I have it memorized or I click into the triple-dot submenu just to see its status, which is a huge hassle. So, @[deleted]'s suggestion about adding a Watch Later icon would be a big help. I'd still prefer the icon to be as easy to interact with as the hearts are with their one-click convenience, but just showing some sort of indicator of a movie's status on the Watch Later list without having to click into each movie's menu would still be a substantial improvement.

Hey, thanks for pointing this out, somehow we missed it. Will change ️
Do you have problems with this anywhere else on the site/app?
