  I agree with the sentiment, but in his linked project he says this:

  Somewhat surprisingly, Trifecta does not touch the images it serves. This is a bit sad since it might be useful for the software to create thumbnails for example. The security record of most image libraries however is sufficiently depressing that it is not worth the cost to do any kind of conversion.

  Apparently leaking EXIF data to the internet is not a concern of his.

  Yeah, I've been doing this for a couple years, since recommendations became useless. At least 50% of recommendations are things I've already seen (and I do have history turned on). I also use SmartTubeNext, which let's me filter out shorts.
