    Maybe those folks could get together with the ones doing captioning? Sometimes it's just fricking hilarious and sometimes it's annoyingly wrong!
    The problems with captioning seem intractable. I can remember all the same issues on my Criterion laserdiscs and that was 30+ years ago. The funniest caption problems IMO are with bigger budget projects where the captions come from the script but the actual dialogue deviates considerably from that script.

    What I hate the most people watching another video and making comments on it
    The reaction genre is certainly overcrowded. It's tough to monetize and the folks who produce good content are rare. I think we'll be stuck with a glut of those channels for the foreseeable future, though. The barriers to entry are low and it's easy to fake a reaction to something.

    Like everything, the best of those channels actually provide good info and entertainment. The other 98% just muck up the place.

    The translated Chinese bootleg star wars subtitles are hilarious

    Gunz are icky.
    Sorta.
    I have a knot on my forehead. It’s there because I passed out while listening to the stupid video drone on. I fell forward and whacked my head on the table. I’ve taken powerful sedatives that didn’t work as well.
    The drool stains on my shirt kinda piss me off too.

    Some text to speech apps have gotten very good. They occasionally make themselves obvious by ridiculously mispronouncing a word in ways no human would. Always gives me a chuckle when that happens.

    This becomes obvious if you watch a lot of aviation videos like I do. When the video is talking about, say, the F-104 Starfighter and the robo-narrator consistently and inaccurately keeps calling the the "F-One Hundred and Four" instead of "F-One Oh Four" or it wildly mispronounces something like the name of the USS Oriskany it gets obvous fast.

    And what is up with these gun vid "guys" that look like dumpy/soft incels?

    Yah, like I want gun advice or commentary from a guy we would have dumped in a trash can in High School!!!

    It often seems like Tik Tok stars have migrated to YT.

    I have a channel, do all of my videos with an iphone, don't give a sh*t who watches them, have 68k views on some videos, never made a penny and don't want to. Your ***** is broken, here is how to fix it. Purely educational. I don't review products out there. I personally have found fixes to things on YouTube that I can't find anywhere else. I hate that they censor and are owned by Google.

    I don’t subscribe to any of them. Ever.

    Jesus H. Christ the flucktards can waste time.

    Nutnfancy deserves a special kind of vitriol.

    He does give good gear reviews. I am a patreon and you'll see me wearing his hat at events ;-) :-p now that I know it annoys so many people here Im going to definitely keep doing it lol

    I hate the vlog format where they talk about their whole day and the only content related to the title is about 30sec long. For whatever reason TheirTube really pushes that crap. I used to like Wranglerstar a long time ago before all his videos turned into that.

    That said, y'all sure are critical of information you're trying to get for free. Not everyone does the crap above. If you would subscribe or click the thumbs up on the videos you do like, the algorithm would start working for you.

    I'm not going to be super critical of channels focused on being entertaining, that's all subjective, but things like disassembly videos? Having to trudge through dozens of videos, and end up having to resort to footage from that world of guns dissassembly videogame? Thats awful
