Some people like to see the food, and judging how it is far more popular than the reviews you’ve mentioned, I would say your opinion is probably in the minority. I don’t say this as a fan; in fact I’m not really interested in streaming or review videos for the most part, but that puts me in a minority too.
Even content creators I like, like for instance ProZD or CalebCity, I love their short form videos, but I don’t watch ProZD’s review videos nor Caleb’s streams.
As long as there are consumers, a product will sell, even if we aren’t interested ourselves or think it’s dumb.
Of course it’s a minority opinion… my opinion. One mans opinion.
Also I don’t like YT shorts. I’m still able to focus on a topic for more than 30 seconds. There are a few creators that do interesting content.
I’m probably too old for content that is created for people born around the year 2000. I prefer stuff that doesn’t make me feel the creator is an Idiot entertaining a bunch of morons.
Yes, as a teen/twen I also was all for fun… but back then there wasn’t the WWW, Facebook, Youtube or what other long/shortlived platforms there are.
Maybe that’s why I seldome consume content that isn’t on the mental fast food side.
Oh, I’m not really young, and I do like long form stuff, but less in the form of video content. Either reading, audio books, or podcasts are generally my longform type entertainment. I so occasionally watch 10-30 minute videos, but again most of my intake like that, especially informational instead of just comedy, is in the form of either podcast or straight text.
I work IT and I don’t like video demonstrations, but instead prefer web pages that explain and give either images or text examples.
