Personal anime recommendations implemented

rjd22

Hello All,

I've been working on improving the database to make it more usable. Most if the improvements have gone to getting better recommendations based on your personal preferences but also based on specific anime's. I hope these changes are helpful in choosing what to watch next.

For personal recommendations you need an account obviously and have added some anime to your library. Importing from MAL is not available yet but will be coming back soon.

For anime specific recommendations you don't need an account. There will be 2 types of recommendations available on anime pages. The first is based in genre similarity. It will not account for how good an anime is but just show you the highest match. The second one is based on what other users really like that also really like that anime while still trying to match some genres to make sure you won't get recommendations that stray to far from the original anime (else you might get recommend horror on a love comedy anime 😛 ).

I hope you all like these changes.

Hey there @rjd22, I see you still have your anime site, that's pretty impressive! are you still active? if you are, you might remember me. You're probably on Discord too these days? Add me there 😉 (my username is ZeroYami)

Yami I'm indeed still around fighting forum spam as you can see. While I don't use it often I keep the site around for archiving purposes and do use the main site to keep track of my own library and try to get recommendations.

I don't have a lot of time anymore to improve things but It allows me to hobby from time to time 😉.
