I don't want any of that shit.

Short form video content is a waste of Internet bandwidth and time. I don't want to watch any narcissist filming their face talking about anything. Same goes for youtube talking heads.

Cool. Not for you then, eh?

"Bakery down the road is closing" the person on the street corner says to anyone listening, "here are some alternatives"

"I don't eat baked goods, they're bad for you" you reply

"O- oh okay. Thanks for letting me know... I guess. Wasn't really talking to you, then"

The content can be fun, the platforms are cancer.

okay, but I'm on loops and there are almost no "talking heads" it's mostly nature, tourist attractions, cats and other pets, ppl dancing or musicians, funny incidents, drone videos, trains, memes and a few computer game clips i don't get.

That's cool I suppose. I also can't get past the garbage portrait video format that everyone uses. People should pay attention to the names of those orientations, Portrait and Landscape, as they are a good indicator of the proper usage.
