Note: I would suggest just removing dark mode for now. Works WAY better in light mode. I almost missed the light mode, and that would have been too bad.
Here's my user test: https://news.pub/?try=https://www.youtube.com/embed/2eac5XZe...
Addressing some points you made in the video:
1. Yes, this is definitely a V0.1. Thank you for taking that into account :D
2. Interactive graphs (custom colors, intensity, what trends to show, etc.) were something we thought might be useful but wanted to hear what others had to say before we invest the time into a feature nobody wanted
3. That super slow "Searching..." loading message should be showing updates for when it's scraping comments, when it's classifying, etc. Not sure why it's not. Some searches like "open source" are more likely to have a ton of comments to pull so it'll take longer.
4. Default mode changed to light mode because it looks better :^)
