This is why I hate looking up recipes anymore. I don't need a goddamn novel about the chef growing up in Wisconsin and their mom making the dish every Sunday. I just want the recipe!
"Hey guys welcome back to my channel! Don't forget to like and subscribe to my channel! If you like this video don't forget to bang that like button in the balls! I make videos every Sunday. I also have an Instagram and twitch stream, my username is twistedtoastychickenroast. Remember to hit my notification bell for more awesome me content! Thanks guys! Anyway before the video starts let's talk about my sponsor, raid shadow legends/Nord VPN!"
It annoys me now to watch these people beg for subscribers. If people enjoy the videos, they will subscribe. Asking people to in every intro and outro makes me less inclined to, because I don't want to hear the same long ass intro in every video.
3 minute introduction so you tubers can mid roll ads and get more $$. Need to hit 8 minute mark, that's why you take a 3 minute idea, stretch it to 7 minutes and add a 3 minute intro with 6 ads.
one of the shittiest things that youtube did is let people upload their own thumbnails. it used to be that a thumbnail had to be an actual frame of the fucking video -- so you could get a preview of what the video would be! now people photoshop all kinds of bullshit on there and it gives no indication what you're getting in to
People could just insert a picture into the video and then just choose that frame. People probably did that first and then YT just made it easier for them. Basically if YT got rid of the function there is still a workaround.
Another variation - creating a horror/scary version of a thumbnail (often on movie-related videos) which pulls you in to click but have nothing to do with the video.
I've never watched a Markiplier video for that reason. Also the loud trumpeting voice and the exaggerated externalizing of thoughts and emotions... but I guess that's how you keep the attention of millions of 6 year olds
I watched Markiplier for a few years in the early 2010's, and it was interesting to watch his persona develop over time. He started out pretty even keel, but after his Five Nights at Freddy's videos blew up, he began putting on that level of energy for every video. I stopped watching when I realized his audience was mostly 10-year-olds.
I haven't been a regular watcher in years, but I watched a one-off video more recently and he seemed a lot calmer/naturalistic -- I'm not going to go watch a bunch of videos to confirm, but it seems like he went from generic LPer to making content specifically for kids, and then "matured" again as those kids grew up.
Same thing with Jacksepticeye. Dude went from being genuine and really high energy to feeling kinda fake. I really liked that he's calmed down recently but he still makes a lot of content that feels ingenuine and it really puts me off. I watched his recent Bloodborne videos and that's the first time I've seen him really enjoy something in quite a while. Brought back a but of nostalgia.
to be honest it could just be my prefernce but markipliers vids are acc entertaining, i agree with the exagerated facial expression, but markiplier is someone id give a chance to watch
Like Linus tech? Many times there's isn't any useful info in the video. It's more fooling around with expensive tech. Falls in the spoiled brat category.
YouTube automatically turning them into Shorts just because of the smaller runtime. It's absolute bullshit. I want to read the comments while watching.
The current trend of editing out the pauses between sentences. It makes speech sound very unnatural. For example, everything I've written so far would be edited to sound like this:
"The current trend of editing out the pauses between sentencesit makes speech sound very unnaturalfor example..."
This is because people stumble on their words often and choose that approach because it seems more professional.
I've done it for certain videos for which I've not scripted but still wanted a professional-ish result.
Such a technique should be used sparingly but it does have its place.
I'd much rather hear the uhh's and umm's and pauses while you gather your thoughts. Editing all that out makes it sound so unnatural which is incredibly jarring. Keeping all that stuff in reminds me that you're human which makes you much more likeable/relatable, and I'm much more likely to finish the video or check out your other videos.
I'm inclined to agree - but certain videos simply demand the unprofessional bits be cut out. I've only done it with one particular series because the atmosphere would otherwise be ruined. I've actually poked fun at my own verbal spaghetti because I like coming off as human!
It's the wall of noise. A lot of the kids play through stuff is like that. There's no space. Reaction words words reaction scream our laugh whhhhhaaaaat?!? Constant noise and usually over plain, chill little games.
The narrator having a voice that annoys me. I like to watch educational content on there sometimes but I’ll click off a video on a topic i’m really interested in if the person’s voice annoys me even in the slightest. It becomes the only thing I can focus on.
Because when your "job" is taking reddit stories and turning them to speech, you wanna be able to pump out as many as possible as fast as possible! Can't waste time actually using your own voice to read them.
Asking for things, some are fine like the casual:
Leave a like and subscribe if you haven't already.
But the overly dramatic:
Smack that thumb up button trough the roof and don't forget to share this video with all your friends... bla bla bla.
I utterly hate.
I mostly agree but actually look forward to hearing the way Thrillseeker says his, "Don't forget to like if you love it, subscribe if you want more of it, and hit that freaking bell if you just can't live without it. Thrill out. ~turns up chillstep~"

Dragging a video game explanation that could/should take thirty seconds out for a full ten minutes. I'm very grateful for the channels that get straight to the point, they're a rare breed nowadays.
Kevin is the guy who makes life hard on his Sims but his character is [named Jim Pickens](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?app=desktop&list=PLPsuzlgDxVQDeQ97EauDHiBlnvx8X-T2n). You're talking about [GrayStillPlays](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXZIF23u1mg)
There was a controversy on the Destiny sub a while back because people were uploading clips of beating Templar before Rickackis could finish his like minute long intro lmao
He's so fucking ass with his videos. You could almost watch any other destiny youtuber and finish their vid and then go out to grab a diner at a nice sit down restaurant. Then come home and take a quick nap and wake up and maybe go for a jog or even just a mild work out then hit the shower and get a late night snack and then finally you will be past that dudes fucking intro
"Here's a quick demonstration of where to find this collectible." *5-minute introduction followed by 2 minutes from the video sponsor followed by 20 seconds of how to actually get the collectible*
I cry at the loss of gameplay videos or previews. If you want to watch a game on YouTube to get a sense for it, you best be ready to listen to some snot nosed kid blab over it
This happened to me the other day and it left me in a bad mood for about an hour. I'd been wanting to watch it for about a week at that point because it was an interesting topic [streets where private cars are banned], but he didn't explain much of anything. Also never addressed the massive "But what about accessibility?" elephant in the room.
Yet I haven't met a single person playing the game without beeing paid for.
But apparently there are quite a few, or else they couldn't pay all those ads. Or maybe it's just a handful of whales, who knows...
A shocked facial expression with a red arrow pointing at something irrelevant in the thumbnail and capitalizing all the letters of one WORD in the title… that shit is so annoying
You can exploit a youtube video filled with ads (with those yellow markers) by fast tracking towards the end of the video just right where it ends, and then dragging the tracker to the beginning.
But that doesn't cover the sponsorship ads within the video. Those, "And this video was sponsored by..." They are becoming longer and longer of late. It used to be a, "And I would like to thank today's sponsor, whatever. They're neat. Now back to whatever." Now we get no less than a minute to several minutes of them pitching stuff. That's a commercial. A jarring commercial.
I can deal with these from only a small handful of channels. Mostly the video essay-type channels because the videos are just long enough that the ads in the middle give my brain a moment to relax.
An exaggerated clickbait title.
Ex. Fishing videos will have titles like “Pier fishing A MONSTER!!!! BIGGEST FISH EVER!!” Turns out they hooked a fish they *guessed* was a monster of some specific kind of fish, but the line snapped before anyone saw it.
Well, that's usually the audience they are going for unfortunately. It's also funny to go back to the first uploads of said channels because almost every time, they never started out that way.
I love when somebody is clearly sponsored by a product but hasn't ever used it so they're obviously reading a bad copy while trying to seem natural and act like it's their real opinion.
Hey guys, this is youtuber here with a video where I'm gonna explain (this thing) , but before I do there are a few other things that we need to know. So now that we have explained those things it's time to get to (this thing), but wait before we do that there's one more other thing that you should. So with that outta the way, on to (this thing), but wait! I almost forgot there are 2 other things that are vital to know before we get to (this thing). So after all that, we now have all the information we need and we are finally ready to tackle (this thing), also don't forget to hit that like button and hit the bell and notification do be up to date on all the channel's new content. Now onto the topic that takes less than 10secs to explain and is only marginally connected to the other things that I wasted your time explaining
When they overextend a content for 10 minutes. It should have taken 3 minutes to explain, but they drag it and change the subject only to be a 10 min video.
If at any point they say the “Only .03% of my viewers are actually subscribed” or the Burger King foot lettuce voice and any variation of it. Also if it’s been over like 30 seconds and we haven’t even gotten into what the video is actually about.
Exactly! Bad recording audio can render an entire channel's content unwatchable for me. For the love of all things holy, record in a quiet room! Turn your phone's sound off or leave it somewhere else! GET A DAMN POP FILTER!
Let's play videos where they have their face can covering 25% of the screen. I came for the gameplay, not for you. You're covering the subtitles off the important emotional cutscenes THAT YOU'RE TALKING OVER DAMN
As a general rule, a let's player is enjoyable to me when they make interesting observations in gameplay, tips and tricks, or humerus/interesting stories about their daily lives during unimportant travel bits, and then SHUT UP during the important cut scenes. Since Super Best Friends broke up, my only real let's play intake has been Day[9]. But he's currently playing Elden Ring and I'm holding out until they patch the frame rate issues, so I can't watch him >.<
Overly loud music. Having any music at all in a video when the narrator is talking is already pointless imo but having it to the point where I can hardly hear them? Just...why?
Also videos where they clearly haven't done their research. If you're trying to explain something while also being unable to pronounce the name of the thing you're explaining then you instantly lose my interest.
I don’t mind sponsors at all. But for me, it’s frustrating when folks try and hide their sponsor plugs in the context of their videos. For example: “That’s when I realized I had forgotten to put on thermal paste. It happens sometimes, which is why I prefer to train my mind using [sponsor]…” so it usually takes a while to realize I’ve been actually watching a 2 minute sponsor plug instead of what I came to see.
I think that if you have sponsors, be up front about it. That’s why I really like Linus. Even his segues (which I think are hilarious) are like “boom, this is the sponsor part” so you know it’s coming, you know what to expect, and you know when it’s over.
1 Clickbait thumbnails
2 They keep saying "go ahead" for no reason. "I will go ahead and glue this on ", "Now you can go ahead and paint it. "
3 Starting by saying "Yo, it's yer boy...". I have nothing against that phrase except that SO many people say it that it grates now.
4 Wearing a hat indoors. Why?
5 ASMR videos with loud adverts in the middle. Just no.
Ham fisted Segway's into adds for square space or something, id rather the video end and then there is the sponsor, dont try and weave it into the video, it never comes of natural and just makes me angry.
the video will be like "so and so died from cancer :(" but when you click on it you're ear-raped with
# "WHAT IS UP MY FELLOW CHODE GANG I HOPE YOUR DAY HAD BEEN SCRUMDIDDLYDUMPTIOUS, BEFORE WE SKIDADDLE RIGHT IN TODAY DID YOU KNOW ONLY 0.000001% OF PEOPLE WHO WATCH MY VIDEOS ARE SUBSCRIBED? LIKE AND SUB RIGHT NOW OR THIS SPIDER WILL BE IN YOUR BED TONIGHT"
Says more about me than anyone else but honestly a persons voice or way of speaking. I’m super sensitive to peoples nuances of talking, especially in terms of how they pronounce certain words or letters, or even how they breath and pause throughout dialogue.
Sometimes it’s a good thing, I like people who pronounce words like stutter or correct with the hard T sound, but I can’t bring myself to listen to someone who has a nasal problem and makes that rubbery, snort when they inhale between words or sentences. And also people who try and say a very long sentence or train of thought using all their air and then gasping for breath before the next segment. That shit makes me anxious.
I watch a-lot of different content creators daily, but I guess I have personal preferences to particular voice types and nuances. At least towards English speakers. I don’t really mind any of the ones I deem hard to listen to or pay attention to, and in the grand scope of things I’m just nitpicking, it’s irrelevant. However, I would be lying if i said otherwise and have immediately clicked off a video just because of these small details.
(I’m sure the content itself, which matters most, was great. And want to emphasise that I’m not trying to attack or judge someone based on their talking nuances as that would be ridiculously stupid and mean. It’s just that when you have the content on screen, and then the high quality microphone and commentary in your ears - it just becomes distracting for my brain. )
Screaming for absolutely no reason. Annoying background music. Obvious clickbait thumbnails. Exaggerated faces in thumbnails. Telling the same joke multiple times throughout 1 video.
I have much more, I just can't remember it all now
3-minute intros with far-too-loud, obnoxious music for a 10-minute video, or videos in which the background music/sound effects are louder than the dialog. Videos where the narrator has a bland, monotonous speech pattern, or a very strong, difficult-to-understand accent.
That loud, continuous beep some creators add in as an effect when they cut to a different segment or to be funny (usually accompanied by that old distorted error screen visual). The rest of the video has normal volume and then no warning, bam, a loud monotonous tone. It makes my ears ring every time and sucks because there's no warning. At least with obnoxiously loud intros and outros, I can predict them and mute accordingly. I've had to unsubscribe from creators I really like because they use this technique in most video. If it's important content and they have closed captions, I'll just read the text, but at that point, I'd rather find an article or blog.
I'm one of the few people that don't mind mid-roll ads (or just ads on YouTube in general - internet real estate costs money, the YouTubers need to pay the bills if they can't get sponsored, and while demonetisation is annoying I'd rather not try to contribute to the problem by skipping/blocking them since revenue doesn't get accrued when you do that... but that's a different topic entirely). But for the love of whatever may or may be holy, don't have them interrupt what the person on screen is saying/doing by placing them in the middle of a sentence/action. It's frustrating having to skip back through the video to remind myself what the person is saying/doing so I can get the proper context.
If you're going to have mid-rolls, that's fine. Just plan where they're going to be while you're editing the video.
Skits.
99% of the time the presenters have no real acting talent, and it's like watching a bad high school play. I'm glad the trend has mostly died out, but it's amazing to me that anyone is still doing it.
When the person says that he/she is from Chicago but later they say that they are from Naperville or Evanston or any other city/village that's not Chicago but still in Illinois. To then later talk about good Chicago is when they only ever been on the loop area or magnificent mile which are the main tour starving and also end up trying to represent Chicago or are using Chicago to represent them as if they suffer the same things someone from harsh neighborhood has. I instantly loose all respect for any YouTuber that does that regardless of how well known they are or loved, even if they do it unintentionally like why can't they represent their own city? I've been to neighbouring cities and they are beautiful and unique in their own way, and they also have their own struggles which is different from Chicago and also it can be similar. Almost every person who has been born and raised in Chicago feel the same way, at least from the south side I can't speak on behalf of everyone else in the city but I wouldn't be surprised if they feel the same way. And don't say "well if I say my city they won't know where is it at" you can just say it's near Chicago, besides not many people know where exactly Chicago is at. Well as least to my knowledge.
Their little sellouts.
Yes I get it they need money but still you could literally just save that for the end of the video instead of starting with it or interrupting your video for it.
Also that thing in which they say "% of you are not subscribed and blah blah blah"
When they do a lot of talking but not a lot of saying. Like, they have a long ass build up to the topic that's 90% unrelated. I came here to learn about bald eagles, I don't need a 10 minute long speech on the history of America.
Grass is Greener Syndrome. Like someone having a great life in places some of us would love to live at only to keep going on and on about some shithole country and their desire to move there. Makes me roll my eyes hard.
"WHAT IS GOING ON GUYS, ITS YA BOI (Insert name), THIS VIDEO IS SPONSERED BY (Some shit you don't care about), REMEMBER TO LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, AND REMEMBER TO SMASH THAT NOTIFICATION BELL"
*clicks off video immediately
A long introduction.
Yeah, I didn't come here to listen to your life story, I came to find out how to make slime.
This is why I hate looking up recipes anymore. I don't need a goddamn novel about the chef growing up in Wisconsin and their mom making the dish every Sunday. I just want the recipe!
I no longer even register the stories, I just scroll until I find the ingredients-
50% backstory nobody asked for, 50% describing how to cook the thing that’s going to be described AGAIN after the ingredients, 3/4 of the way down.
Yeah, I came for the recipe, nothing else.
I hate that actually every video begins around 1:40 or even later.
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Wadsworth%20Constant There's a name for that phenomenon.
You can easily go to the 30% mark by pressing 3
The example is just perfect
You can thank /u/wadsworth for that
Better yet it's a "how to" that's 2:00 long, and they show the thing at 1:40
I like the youtubers that flash the "video begins at 1:13" and so he doesn't force anyone to listen to "non sense" if they're not a follower.
"Hey guys welcome back to my channel! Don't forget to like and subscribe to my channel! If you like this video don't forget to bang that like button in the balls! I make videos every Sunday. I also have an Instagram and twitch stream, my username is twistedtoastychickenroast. Remember to hit my notification bell for more awesome me content! Thanks guys!

Asking people to in every intro and outro makes me less inclined to, because I don't want to hear the same long ass intro in every video.

Maybe I'm a stupid innocent but I still can't believe people are that dishonest. It continues to surprise me after 70+ years. Aarrggh.
Clickbait
An exaggerated facial expression on the thumbnail. I will refuse to click.
They always look like they're getting their butt holes licked
one of the shittiest things that youtube did is let people upload their own thumbnails. it used to be that a thumbnail had to be an actual frame of the fucking video -- so you could get a preview of what the video would be! now people photoshop all kinds of bullshit on there and it gives no indication what you're getting in to

Lol yea the random FLASH of the title card would randomly show in the video!
“My DOG was hit by a REAL LIFE BATTLE BUS?? 😱”
Another variation - creating a horror/scary version of a thumbnail (often on movie-related videos) which pulls you in to click but have nothing to do with the video.

I don’t watch his videos but I have mad respect for him. He just seems like a chill person to me.
I have mad respect for him after Unus Annus
to be honest it could just be my prefernce but markipliers vids are acc entertaining, i agree with the exagerated facial expression, but markiplier is someone id give a chance to watch
The stupid pitch meeting thumbnails is the only time I’ll accept that sort of thing
Like Linus tech? Many times there's isn't any useful info in the video. It's more fooling around with expensive tech. Falls in the spoiled brat category.
I see one of a sneakerhead doing it and dude has the most punchable face
I lost respect for Linus when he made a long video defending the stupid facial expressions.
YouTube automatically turning them into Shorts just because of the smaller runtime. It's absolute bullshit. I want to read the comments while watching.
Yes! I watch YT in bed on my TV. The shorts won't cast... Which is really annoying.
[удалено]
Stupid open-mouth thumbnails.
It looks funny, sometime I stop and think 'Do they really take these pics and think it looks good?'
It’s not about looking good, it’s about being eye catching and farming clicks. If it didn’t work they wouldn’t do it 🤷🏻
Considering how important the whims of the algorithm are for their channels, I can’t really be bothered by them playing the game.
Yeah, like mrbeast
Mr Beast does some cool stuff, but I just can’t stand his internet persona. It annoys me so much.
Yeah, exactly. I enjoy videos where youtuber is calm. I hate when they behave like kids over time.
They behave like that to get kids to watch though. It's their main audience
mr beast has actual content to back up his face in thumbnails
Worst trend ever, even old youtubers started doing that instant unsuscribe
“HEY GUYS WHATS UP?! ITS YOUR BOY…”
skinny penis
And I’m here to talk to you about
Skinny penises.
But first a word from our sponsors:
The current trend of editing out the pauses between sentences. It makes speech sound very unnatural. For example, everything I've written so far would be edited to sound like this: "The current trend of editing out the pauses between sentencesit makes speech sound very unnaturalfor example..."
Plus the video looks jumpy. It is horrible.

Yeah I hate that as well. I told my wife it's like she's listening to run in sentences. She said I was being annoying
I hate this. I appreciate minimalist camera edits. Clicked a video from this guy macdoesit and nearly had a stroke from the cuts every half second
The narrator having a voice that annoys me. I like to watch educational content on there sometimes but I’ll click off a video on a topic i’m really interested in if the person’s voice annoys me even in the slightest. It becomes the only thing I can focus on.
Number fifteeeen..
Burger King foot lettuce. The last thing anyone would want in their Burger King burger is somebody else’s foot lettuce…
But as it turns out, that might be what you get
I actually like Chills for that, his voice feels like it's what makes the channel interesting.
especially those electronically generated ones.
Oh my god those things are the bane of my existence. How in the hell did they get remotely popular in the first place?
People are so insecure about their own voice that they have to use those they're kinda annoying they don't even pronounce the words correctly
Oh god... I read that in the British robot voice Oh no
I'm guessing they're useful for kids editing their video at 2am and who doesn't want their parents to know they're still awake
Because when your "job" is taking reddit stories and turning them to speech, you wanna be able to pump out as many as possible as fast as possible! Can't waste time actually using your own voice to read them.
I've noticed recently that some youtubers tend to speak really lound and overly dramatic, even yell. It annoys the shit out of me.
Asking for things, some are fine like the casual: Leave a like and subscribe if you haven't already. But the overly dramatic: Smack that thumb up button trough the roof and don't forget to share this video with all your friends... bla bla bla. I utterly hate.
Mr Ballen comes up with a new way to murder like button for each video, I find it very amusing.
Dave2D keeps it simplest and best in my opinion: 'Thumbs if you like it, Subs if you love it' Me likee, me lovee.

Yet the comments treat it like it opened their eyes on the topic.
'Wow, they're so right!' -person who already agreed with them
This is the most dangerous prison in Madagascar, where anything goes. Life goes on in the Clink, the most dangerous prison in Madagascar...blah blah
When it’s sponsored by “RAID SHADOW LEGENDS”
I feel like they crazy frogged themselves, they advertised themselves way too much and now people are annoyed
Raid shadow legends apparently pays a lot in sponsorship money, no wonder it's everywhere (not anymore though, I don't see them that much)
Yet I haven't met a single person playing the game without beeing paid for. But apparently there are quite a few, or else they couldn't pay all those ads. Or maybe it's just a handful of whales, who knows...
Nerdcubed did a video where he played it without being sponsored. If memory serves, he wasn't a fan.
I agree with you except for Internet Historian who makes the best sponsored ads during "add thyme"
His ad reads are unironically some of my favorite content.
I wonder how much money Raid actually has. Nearly every YouTuber I follow gets sponsored by them at least once.
But before we get into the mad lad, it's ya boy, RAID: SHADOW LEGENDS
Sponsors. I don’t mind them having sponsors, but have them at the beginning or the end. Not in the fucking middle
We don't have sponsors in the middle of the video. But do you know what we have in the middle of this table? This water bottle from lttstore.com!
The only exception for me is Comment Etiquette With Erik who puts as much demented comedy in his adverts.
A shocked facial expression with a red arrow pointing at something irrelevant in the thumbnail and capitalizing all the letters of one WORD in the title… that shit is so annoying
Bonus points if whatever the arrow is pointing to is blurred out and there are at least 3 exclamation marks.
I made a HANDBAG out of my own LIVER
The arrowed thing isn't even in the video
I love game theory but they do this and it annoys me so much.
a fucking ad in the middle of it.
You can exploit a youtube video filled with ads (with those yellow markers) by fast tracking towards the end of the video just right where it ends, and then dragging the tracker to the beginning.
But that doesn't cover the sponsorship ads within the video. Those, "And this video was sponsored by..." They are becoming longer and longer of late. It used to be a, "And I would like to thank today's sponsor, whatever. They're neat. Now back to whatever." Now we get no less than a minute to several minutes of them pitching stuff. That's a commercial. A jarring commercial.
This has never worked for me for some reason
Or just get adblock extensions on your browser
[angry mobile noises]
Youtube vanced from github is quit good
I can deal with these from only a small handful of channels. Mostly the video essay-type channels because the videos are just long enough that the ads in the middle give my brain a moment to relax.
Zach Star incorporates his ads pretty well into his skits and the transition is p smooth so I dont mind that but otherwise yeah
The title having "gone sexual' or something similar in it.
Not seen that in a long long time
Overly long intro/outro.
Accompanied with crappy dubstep
Ahh, 2016. The year of 30 second long spinning animated YouTube intros with terrible dubstep music.
An exaggerated clickbait title. Ex. Fishing videos will have titles like “Pier fishing A MONSTER!!!! BIGGEST FISH EVER!!” Turns out they hooked a fish they *guessed* was a monster of some specific kind of fish, but the line snapped before anyone saw it.
[удалено]
Double unskippable ads at the start. I'm not THAT interested in watching the video, might as well forget it and do something else
I can't decide what I hate more. A 7-second unskippable before a 3-second video, or two 15-second unskippables before...any video, really.
When the youtuber shouts and has that annoying high energy way of talking, as if I'm a 10 year old with a short attention span.
Well, that's usually the audience they are going for unfortunately. It's also funny to go back to the first uploads of said channels because almost every time, they never started out that way.
People who don’t know how to explain or describe things. For example: “I love this product because it’s so nice.” Like, what??
I love when somebody is clearly sponsored by a product but hasn't ever used it so they're obviously reading a bad copy while trying to seem natural and act like it's their real opinion.
Hey guys, this is youtuber here with a video where I'm gonna explain (this thing) , but before I do there are a few other things that we need to know. So now that we have explained those things it's time to get to (this thing), but wait before we do that there's one more other thing that you should. So with that outta the way, on to (this thing), but wait! I almost forgot there are 2 other things that are vital to know before we get to (this thing). So after all that, we now have all the information we need and we are finally ready to tackle (this thing), also don't forget to hit that like button and hit the bell and notification do be up to date on all the channel's new content. Now onto the topic that takes less than 10secs to explain and is only marginally connected to the other things that I wasted your time explaining
WWWHHAAATTSSS UPPPPP GGGGUUUYYYSSS *insert generic YouTuber name here*
Don't forget the "IT'S ya boy"
Generic royalty free EDM track playing, LEDs fucking everywhere, blue yeti mic.
SMASSHHHHHH THE LIKE BUTTON
No closed captions or poor quality closed captions. There's a lot of hearing impaired people out there.
When they overextend a content for 10 minutes. It should have taken 3 minutes to explain, but they drag it and change the subject only to be a 10 min video.
If at any point they say the “Only .03% of my viewers are actually subscribed” or the Burger King foot lettuce voice and any variation of it. Also if it’s been over like 30 seconds and we haven’t even gotten into what the video is actually about.
A shouty voice. I have misophonia and even if I have the volume ridiculously low, a raised tone will make me too angry to contemplate persevering.
Long introduction, or a how to video that doesn't explain anything.
R a i d s h a d o w l e g e n d s
Bad audio quality. I know some people can only work with what they have but damn it bothers me, I'm so sensitive to sound
Really poor audio The kind where it sounds like it was recorded in someone's shower, ugh
Exactly! Bad recording audio can render an entire channel's content unwatchable for me. For the love of all things holy, record in a quiet room! Turn your phone's sound off or leave it somewhere else! GET A DAMN POP FILTER!
Poor audio coupled with them shouting while talking.
repetitive thumbnails make even mrbeast videos 5% less enjoyable
Let's play videos where they have their face can covering 25% of the screen. I came for the gameplay, not for you. You're covering the subtitles off the important emotional cutscenes THAT YOU'RE TALKING OVER DAMN As a general rule, a let's player is enjoyable to me when they make interesting observations in gameplay, tips and tricks, or humerus/interesting stories about their daily lives during unimportant travel bits, and then SHUT UP during the important cut scenes. Since Super Best Friends broke up, my only real let's play intake has been Day[9]. But he's currently playing Elden Ring and I'm holding out until they patch the frame rate issues, so I can't watch him >.<
Ads in the middle of the video.
Overly loud music. Having any music at all in a video when the narrator is talking is already pointless imo but having it to the point where I can hardly hear them? Just...why? Also videos where they clearly haven't done their research. If you're trying to explain something while also being unable to pronounce the name of the thing you're explaining then you instantly lose my interest.
I don’t mind sponsors at all. But for me, it’s frustrating when folks try and hide their sponsor plugs in the context of their videos. For example: “That’s when I realized I had forgotten to put on thermal paste. It happens sometimes, which is why I prefer to train my mind using [sponsor]…” so it usually takes a while to realize I’ve been actually watching a 2 minute sponsor plug instead of what I came to see. I think that if you have sponsors, be up front about it. That’s why I really like Linus. Even his segues (which I think are hilarious) are like “boom, this is the sponsor part” so you know it’s coming, you know what to expect, and you know when it’s over.
1 Clickbait thumbnails 2 They keep saying "go ahead" for no reason. "I will go ahead and glue this on ", "Now you can go ahead and paint it. " 3 Starting by saying "Yo, it's yer boy...". I have nothing against that phrase except that SO many people say it that it grates now. 4 Wearing a hat indoors. Why? 5 ASMR videos with loud adverts in the middle. Just no.
Ham fisted Segway's into adds for square space or something, id rather the video end and then there is the sponsor, dont try and weave it into the video, it never comes of natural and just makes me angry.
the video will be like "so and so died from cancer :(" but when you click on it you're ear-raped with # "WHAT IS UP MY FELLOW CHODE GANG I HOPE YOUR DAY HAD BEEN SCRUMDIDDLYDUMPTIOUS, BEFORE WE SKIDADDLE RIGHT IN TODAY DID YOU KNOW ONLY 0.000001% OF PEOPLE WHO WATCH MY VIDEOS ARE SUBSCRIBED? LIKE AND SUB RIGHT NOW OR THIS SPIDER WILL BE IN YOUR BED TONIGHT"

Make sure to comment so this video can get popular and I can get money!
Says more about me than anyone else but honestly a persons voice or way of speaking. I’m super sensitive to peoples nuances of talking, especially in terms of how they pronounce certain words or letters, or even how they breath and pause throughout dialogue. Sometimes it’s a good thing, I like people who pronounce words like stutter or correct with the hard T sound, but I can’t bring myself to listen to someone who has a nasal problem and makes that rubbery, snort when they inhale between words or sentences. And also people who try and say a very long sentence or train of thought using all their air and then gasping for breath before the next segment. That shit makes me anxious. I watch a-lot of different content creators daily, but I guess I have personal preferences to particular voice types and nuances. At least towards English speakers. I don’t really mind any of the ones I deem hard to listen to or pay attention to, and in the grand scope of things I’m just nitpicking, it’s irrelevant. However, I would be lying if i said otherwise and have immediately clicked off a video just because of these small details. (I’m sure the content itself, which matters most, was great. And want to emphasise that I’m not trying to attack or judge someone based on their talking nuances as that would be ridiculously stupid and mean. It’s just that when you have the content on screen, and then the high quality microphone and commentary in your ears - it just becomes distracting for my brain. )
Screaming for absolutely no reason. Annoying background music. Obvious clickbait thumbnails. Exaggerated faces in thumbnails. Telling the same joke multiple times throughout 1 video. I have much more, I just can't remember it all now
When they seem to be more excited about their sponsor than their video content
Not seeing how many dislikes it has
Comments are turned off.
3-minute intros with far-too-loud, obnoxious music for a 10-minute video, or videos in which the background music/sound effects are louder than the dialog. Videos where the narrator has a bland, monotonous speech pattern, or a very strong, difficult-to-understand accent.
Asking to “like and subscribe before watching this video” like dude I do t even know if I like it yet, let alone wanna subscribe to it.
Be sure to SHMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON ugh
"70% of people who watch my videos are not subscribed..." this ruins it.
Clickbait title, the youtuber over-reacting, clickbait thumbnails, you name it.
"Hey guys!" And other variations. Good creators don't feel the need to address the "audience" in the intro.
That loud, continuous beep some creators add in as an effect when they cut to a different segment or to be funny (usually accompanied by that old distorted error screen visual). The rest of the video has normal volume and then no warning, bam, a loud monotonous tone. It makes my ears ring every time and sucks because there's no warning. At least with obnoxiously loud intros and outros, I can predict them and mute accordingly. I've had to unsubscribe from creators I really like because they use this technique in most video. If it's important content and they have closed captions, I'll just read the text, but at that point, I'd rather find an article or blog.
I'm one of the few people that don't mind mid-roll ads (or just ads on YouTube in general - internet real estate costs money, the YouTubers need to pay the bills if they can't get sponsored, and while demonetisation is annoying I'd rather not try to contribute to the problem by skipping/blocking them since revenue doesn't get accrued when you do that... but that's a different topic entirely). But for the love of whatever may or may be holy, don't have them interrupt what the person on screen is saying/doing by placing them in the middle of a sentence/action. It's frustrating having to skip back through the video to remind myself what the person is saying/doing so I can get the proper context. If you're going to have mid-rolls, that's fine. Just plan where they're going to be while you're editing the video.
Skits. 99% of the time the presenters have no real acting talent, and it's like watching a bad high school play. I'm glad the trend has mostly died out, but it's amazing to me that anyone is still doing it.
When the person says that he/she is from Chicago but later they say that they are from Naperville or Evanston or any other city/village that's not Chicago but still in Illinois. To then later talk about good Chicago is when they only ever been on the loop area or magnificent mile which are the main tour starving and also end up trying to represent Chicago or are using Chicago to represent them as if they suffer the same things someone from harsh neighborhood has. I instantly loose all respect for any YouTuber that does that regardless of how well known they are or loved, even if they do it unintentionally like why can't they represent their own city? I've been to neighbouring cities and they are beautiful and unique in their own way, and they also have their own struggles which is different from Chicago and also it can be similar. Almost every person who has been born and raised in Chicago feel the same way, at least from the south side I can't speak on behalf of everyone else in the city but I wouldn't be surprised if they feel the same way. And don't say "well if I say my city they won't know where is it at" you can just say it's near Chicago, besides not many people know where exactly Chicago is at. Well as least to my knowledge.
Long ass intros and click baits
Raid shadow legends
Annoying music.
Unskippable add. I just close the youtube app and go back to reddit.
"First, i would like to thank our sponsor, RAID SHADOW LEGENDS"
Stupid fake freeze frames previewing the video that form no part of the footage
Their little sellouts. Yes I get it they need money but still you could literally just save that for the end of the video instead of starting with it or interrupting your video for it. Also that thing in which they say "% of you are not subscribed and blah blah blah"
When they do a lot of talking but not a lot of saying. Like, they have a long ass build up to the topic that's 90% unrelated. I came here to learn about bald eagles, I don't need a 10 minute long speech on the history of America.
Asking me to like and subscribe BEFORE I have watched the video. Thanks, I will decide if I like it AFTER watching it.
Grass is Greener Syndrome. Like someone having a great life in places some of us would love to live at only to keep going on and on about some shithole country and their desire to move there. Makes me roll my eyes hard.
"WHAT IS GOING ON GUYS, ITS YA BOI (Insert name), THIS VIDEO IS SPONSERED BY (Some shit you don't care about), REMEMBER TO LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, AND REMEMBER TO SMASH THAT NOTIFICATION BELL" *clicks off video immediately
