Shopee Has Been Spying On You

Have you ever wondered how the fudge Shopee (or any other online shopping platforms) knows what exactly you are looking for every time you open their app?

If you open your app, you will notice the Daily Discover tab. This is specifically designed or recommended for each user based on their behavioral pattern or recently explored items. For this article, I’m going to share what in the world is on my PERSONAL Daily Discover tab.

Yep, I’m into Gunpla and I’ve been recently eyeing to buy one or two in addition to my collections. However, I just don’t understand why Daban is appearing on my Daily Discoveries when I’m very much particular with the brand. I prefer Bandai than Chinese knockoffs. Maybe Shopee algorithm includes recommendations for cheaper price for the same category as a bait to make sure that I will check it out and eventually splurge. 🔥💸

And yes, I’m also planning on re-organizing my room, hence the storage and organizers.

Overall, Shopee has a pretty much impressive algorithm.
