YouTube face… And useless red arrow?
Definitely No thanks
I was curious about how much you could actually read in the 11 minutes that this YouTube drivel wasted on getting a point across
I tested my reading speed and it was 346 wpm, so I’m guessing the average is about 300 because I read a lot
3300 words is an absolute fuckton of information.
I’ve no idea why anyone would waste 11 minutes listening to about two minutes worth of information
Not everyone can sit down and read for very long, some people want something to listen to while they do other things, some people learn better in audio format, and some people just like watching videos. It’s fine if it is not your jam, but that is no reason to denigrate someone choosing to watch a video instead of reading an article.
I had an argument shortly after the great migration. Someone had posted a video essay on something gaming related and the person I responded to was adamant that a video couldn’t be an essay. It was a two hour deep dive into the topic, with graphs/journalistic photos/news video snippets, and the video info section had a citation list longer than your arm.
This person couldn’t understand that just because the creator had decided to present their essay in video format, didn’t mean it wasn’t an essay. All they had to say basically boiled down to:
only stupid people watch a video this long when you could read the equivalent amount of information in less than half the time.
Needless to say, that got my hackles up a tad.
Yup. It is just needlessly aggressive and gatekeepy.
Exactly! There’s no reason to be that way, other than to feel superior to someone. And that’s just kinda a shit way to be!
