@emanate @Austin_Dern It's not just you. I skip 90% of the video content that comes up. When I do watch something, I usually default to skipping about 1/3 of a way through -- that usually gets me through *most* of the BS introductory padding.
Honestly, I blame Youtube completely for this. So much of the failure of videos to GET TO THE FUCKING POINT is just users trying to keep up with the goddamn revenue algorithms. It infuriates me. I want OUR fucking Internet back. -___-
