Even worse is captions saying what happens. Like it'll be a video of a baby trying to sit on a chair and missing and falling...and the caption will say "bro missed his chair".
Why does a 7 second video need spoilers?
The worst is people verbally explaining what you're seeing like a fucking documentary. It's extra bad because they stole the video they're narrating.
Even better is a split screen video where the bottom half is someone playing Minecraft or some really simple platform game because people don't have the attention span to learn some dumb fact without also watching some game on half of their screen.
I really hate this version of the internet.
I've never seen those in any of my feeds, thankfully. Probably because I tend to watch longer videos and..."original" videos (no overlayed people or other stuff)
Same, but once in a while I start watching a short from one of my subscriptions and then start scrolling. I guess because I watch some gaming content, YouTube thinks I want to watch that drivel.
I watch a lot of gaming content, but it's mostly video essay or review style stuff. Maybe that's what keeps my feed clean.
On YouTube, I don't watch shorts at all though. And I'm vicious about telling it "Not Interested" when there's something I don't want in my feed.
It's not my feed that has crap. Try swiping up on 100 shorts some night when you can't sleep and see what you see.
That’s up there with the overlay of the “creator” pointing at the spoiler text, needlessly obscuring the actual content.
It's the attention span shrinking as time goes by.
I have a brilliant idea actually; a video sharing site with a maximum video length of one second. "How much can you fit in a second? Find out for only $10/month"
That just made me miss Vine and early Twitter... Attention span be damned, there's an art to crafting a good joke with a length constraint that I don't see much on the internet anymore
RIP Mitch Hedberg
Yeah. Those platforms were the one-liners of social media comedy. 7 seconds/140 characters to set up and deliver a punch line.
Bill Gates, Zuccerberg and Elon Musk wants to know your address.
It's six times better than vine!
