You can turn off comments on your own videos if that works. The comment section is weird for sure.

Several YouTube things that irritate me is long entros, music choices, rambling, and bouncing cameras.

Too many just take forever to get to the point of anything.  Then others ruin it with music which most of the time isn't needed.  I mute many of these.  There are some restoration ones I like where you just here the ambient sounds of what they're doing.  I like that better.

Then there's those that ramble to fill the gaps. Not every thought is needed.

Final issue is the camera bouncing all around. I see a lot of layout videos do this.  It's like the Blair Witch phenomenon.  Makes my head hurt.

Some neat ones recently are forum member @SantaFeJim, short and simple. Easy to watch. No unneeded extras.  Clean stable shots.

 

 

Amen, brother!  And yet YouTube "encourages" every irritation you mention above. Ultimately, they want to keep eyes on YouTube in general to sell ads even if it alienates many of us going there for entertainment, recommendations, or how to's.

I encourage everyone to subscribe to their favorite channels so good behavior will be rewarded over the annoying trends and your favorite content providers will be higher in the youtube search engine .  Keep in mind that subscribing is not the same as notifications which can be another annoyance.  Subscribing just makes it convenient to find your favorite content creators again rather than youtube guessing at what they think you would be interested in.
