Feel like you have something to post, but it's not really relevant to any of the current communities, and you don't feel like it's worth making an entirely new community just to post it? This is the place for that.

I spent 2 months looking for a music video I swear I'd watched. YouTube's watch history did not help at all, not to mention it would sometimes break while scrolling so I couldn't get that far.
I finally found it by exporting my Google Takeout data, selecting only YouTube data, and then loading the watch history file in a text editor and searching for things like "music video" and "official video". I found it in about 2 minutes.
