Watching this now and, regardless of his claim that he wants a competitive game, this is definitely the result of Mike’s leftover sublimated rage at Rich over the Star Trek trivia episodes.

imagine having absolutely zero creativity or interest in video craft or filmmaking and just seeing a camera as a tool to deliver monologues At an audience

this is how 99% of youtubers approach the platform and it's so, so sad. a camera is a wonderous machine that facilitates infinite possibilities in storytelling, and the only thing people can even think of to do with it is record themselves alone in their room reciting the online drama du jour followed by "well, that happened!" + pogchamp face

Lots of people do in fact put videos on youtube that aren't just monologues at a camera but that means that they upload one video every 2-3 months or something rather than 5 hours of content a week (and youtube basically pays by time viewed)

Or they started with monologues at a camera and started making enough money that they could exploit other people to do all the actual video editing

I don't sit down and simply watch YouTube like I would a movie or TV show. It's always the second screen for working or gaming. It's often more like a podcast that I can glance at every once in awhile.

I have no idea which is the cause here though. Do I treat YouTube differently because of the way they make the videos or do they make the videos that way because they know most of their audience is distracted anyway?

The problem is a lot of content creators are not drunk. I have no interest in some sober person rambling unironically about pop culture or politics.

I love when they do have an editor, but not one who wants to actually have to watch all of it and you get the talking head asking the editor to do this or that in the edit and the editor does not, on top of leaving the request in the video.

Yeah, a lot of Youtube is just podcasts with visual aids, and a lot of youtube videomakers are aware of that. I think Jenny Nicholson has basically said as such about her ramble videos, and Well There's Your Problem often jokes about the people who are just listening via podcast app and can't see the slide being discussed. Which is fine, it's an aspect of the medium.
