Tagging Watched Videos

The first thing I noticed on this site is that videos watched on a computer are not tagged.  It's more than just a nicety to be able to see what videos you have previously watched, it's a must.  So I've had to create a text file and track them that way, and I've also had to watch them sequentially in order to manage this all more easily, which is very annoying.  This should be an easy fix and to me should be priority one in enhancing the usability of this site.

Similar to my experience on Android. The videos I have watched are marked as such. However, to find a specific video I would like to watch again I have to scroll through the mixed list of both watched and unwatched videos. I'd like to be able to save a video for future reference or add it to a separate list of favorite videos.

I'd settle for just the tag like you get on phones, so in addition to all the scrolling you are talking about I don't have to maintain a database of watched videos on my own and continually update and reference this.  I can't believe that this isn't offered as a feature because it's an essential one really, I've no idea what other people are doing with these, other than relying on memory, and mine isn't anywhere near that good.  Deja vu here is not a good thing.  There is a good reason behind other sources tagging videos 

 

I was sort of hoping someone from the site would at least comment, even a don't hold your breath would at least be a response.  Anyone alive out there from chess.com?

I've finally fully migrated over to just using my phone to watch videos, because I'm sick of having to record them on a bloody spreadsheet each time I watch one.  It took quite a while to watch a few seconds on my phone of every video I've ever watched on here so far, and watching on a phone isn't ideal, but at least they are being tracked now.  Epic fail on this chess.com.

 

I can't believe this isn't an issue with more people here.  There's a reason why sites like youtube and other chess sites tag videos.  People like to see what the hell they've watched before.
