Rinad Amir Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 So where to start i recently noticed this fkin crazy habit while surfing on Youtube or Vimeo Id click on some video and if the first couple frames gets my attention id pause it click on info to see what lenses ^camera was used etc and if more ad scroll through comments to find the answer ,and then continue watching 😪 so id ignore the story just for sake what gear was used in video This is completly wrong attitude and i need cure! Em i alone?  heart0less and Platto 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members BTM_Pix Posted February 20, 2020 Super Members Share Posted February 20, 2020 I've recently taken to only watching YouTube on my TV. Its absolutely transformational just watching the content without it being a small window embedded in all the "CLICK ME, CLICK ME!!" shit. I very rarely scrub through stuff now and tend to watch the whole thing as I'm far more engaged. It also completely and utterly removes from view all of the inane and borderline insane trolling comments from dullard wankers. So I heartily recommend viewing YouTube in a format where if there is a way to turn all that shit back on, I sure as hell can't find it ! A very happy accident. kaylee and Rinad Amir 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Hummus Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 The YouTube comment section is trash. It’s either filled with brown nosing drivel or toxic troll turds. There is almost nothing in between that spectrum. I would be tempted to just disable comments on any video I put on YouTube, but then it kills your discoverability because apparently Youutbe things important things are happing in the comment section 😒 But then again, maybe that is a hidden feature...🤔 BTM_Pix and Rinad Amir 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heart0less Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 At first I thought that this topic was some sort impolite commentary on Andrew's news on getting another camera, but then I checked the timestamps.. ( : IronFilm, Rinad Amir and Emanuel 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebrothersthre3 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Its fun for me and I don't really lose much money. I am not racking up credit debt buying REDs! I just sell out one kit to buy another. Probably don't need to but its more fun that way. Rinad Amir 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
