While not the same "streamer" as I was thinking (i.e. Twitch), the point I was going to make still stands. I'm not sure streamers have been good for anything. They are like a disease.
Everything is being dumbed down for attention span, it's insane.
And why?
The fault as always lies with content creators who stretch the most minor commentary into ages of ponderous useless bullshit.
The Quartering is king of this. The entire content of most videos being at most 3 sentences, but they have to stretch to that 10 minutes.
It means that i develop a strategy to save myself time, and the heuristic i end up with is that the first third and last third of every video is pointless bullshit. I can waste 15 seconds each side to get 30 seconds of content. I'm not wasting 10 minutes each side to get 10 minutes of content. Fuck off.
The well is poisoned. Too bad.
Not to mention half of "content creators" are charisma-less sacks of shit with whiny nasally voices that make me what to spew.
The people who are actually compelling earn their hour of content which I will listen to cover to cover, everybody else is just a dumbass with a microphone.
I didn't watch it :p
