Why the clickbait title? Yes, it's technically correct, but it obviously implies (as written) that o3 used those links "behind your back" and altered the replies.

Another option that's just as correct and doesn't mislead: "Profiling myself from my Pocket links with o3"

Note: title when reviewed is "o3 used my saved Pocket links to profile me"

"I used o3 on my Pocket lists to generate a profile of myself" would be better. The author is the agent, not a passive participant.

Though if it were me I would go with "Self-profiling with Pocket and O3"

Thanks all for your feedback. Adjusted the title to clearly reflect that I'm the agent here.
