I love the effort! Motivates me to make the best stuff I can as well

Just don’t expect an animation every single week LOL

I love the almost disdainful flick of the robot arm as is throws the glass onto the top conveyor belt.

Have you found some automation for doing this sort of animation. Like vide Python or C++
This was all keyframed, I know that there are some ways to automate some of the movements but I simply overlooked the tutorial, you can check it here: Animate a Character in 15 Minutes in Blender - YouTube
It reminds me of an old, previous, Blender collab:

Update: I’ve got a day or so left to tinker with this, but I’m oddly unsatisfied with it and can’t quite place why. Thoughts and critiques?

I can see a couple of problems.
The main one I’d say is the framing, the 2 main focal points are spread slightly out of the rule of thirds without link between. The viewer has nowhere to look (nothing interesting to look).
The second problem is the lack of contrast (same mistake I made on the desert challenge). It may be the colors or the light choice, I can’t say for sure.
EDIT:
I want to add one thing, the composition could’ve been more interesting if for example the dumbster bin was positioned exactly on the right third, put the tree behind it as it was left there. This post is distracting in this current position, maybe move it more to the left and make it less Bright/Saturated so it does not attracted so much attention. Maybe keep it behind the bin but make the much brighter than it. On the left empty space there could be a city landscape or something else that fills the space without been the main motive.
PS: I may not know what I’m talking about. Please use your own discretion when receiving this feedback.

I agree with @igorfv about the Rule of Thirds issue. Here’s a quick markup I did to help you visualize what he’s talking about.
Only the lower half of the tree is at the bottom left focal point. The other 3 are empty of any of the main objects in the scene.

It’s missing a story.
Adding the tree partly in the bin, would be more one statement. Like, It’s too big to recycle.

Yes, add a bit more light (on my monitor it is dark).

Yeah I figured it would be on some monitors, looks perfect on mine but every bodies monitor setup is different so will add some more 
Oh, that’s exactly what I meant with my EDIT but you used english that actually makes sense.

I had absolutely no inspiration so I made a recycling sign and uploaded a few versions to Wikimedia Commons. Maybe somebody will have a use for them
