Comment on The Crummy Behavior of Under-The-Radar Tech CEOs - SOME MORE NEWS
BolexForSoup@kbin.social 1 year agoHonestly I like the content but I am so over the character. I just don’t find that stuff funny or useful, it’s too schlocky for me.

Yeah. I can agree with that. I think he was trying to provide a unique brand a la Colbert Report. I agree it can be a little schlocky, but the information is typically really good. I think one of the biggest improvements he could make would be to do shorter segments. Split his videos up into more videos. He’d get more money by doing it, and the information would likely be easier to digest. It’s a lot of deep dives which can get a little exhausting. Still, he’s fighting the good fight, so I can’t complain too much.

Yeah totally get it. And to be clear thisis a critique not a rant about how much I hate him or something. I also get that part of it is just the culture of YouTube. People say they hate all the clickbait thumbnails and all that stuff, but it drives engagement which means they make more money, so they’re going to keep doing it unless we stop incentivizing it - clearly it works despite what some of us on forums say!
I imagine he does it because it’s rewarded ultimately. I can’t say I would do differently.
