FAQ

Q: How accurate is the trending data? A: Uses YouTube's official "mostPopular" endpoint — the same data shown on youtube.com/trending.

Q: Why do some videos have 0 comments? A: Comments may be disabled, or the count isn't available via API.

Q: Can I track trends over time? A: This returns snapshots. Run periodically and store results yourself for historical tracking.
