    Ah, now I can be excited for them and move on with my day. I get that video presentations can be great for feature releases that need visual aids, but I don’t want to sit through a video for details that can be summed up in two sentences.

      Then don’t watch it. I have spent more time now reading this complaint on Lemmy than I have watching videos that were not worth my time.

      The guy that made this video had a few minutes to make a high-engagement video I guess and no time to write a low-engagement press release. That was his choice.

      Your choice is to watch it or not. He does not your views. Videos do better regardless of your opinion.

      I actually agree with you but I am just sick of reading this comment on every video posted. Use tech to transcribe it yourself or just don’t watch. Stop making me read this complaint. Unlike video, I have to waste time reading before I realize what you are saying.

          Well, you clearly did not read mine. At least, not the part where I addressed exactly that. I do love these opportunities to brush with genius.

            Nope. I read until you did what you criticized, decided it was wasting my time and stopped.

          The reason videos are so inefficient for him is because he has to take so much time on each one to complain about it being a video.
