A fairly popular youtuber I follow has called Jim Serling’s videos “great 5 minute videos stretched to 20 minutes”. There was a point in time when the yt algo was favoring ~11 minute videos, so a lot of content creators would make a glut of low info videos stretched to that mark. It was so bad, that I was refusing to click anything around the runtime. Now, if I catch someone start reiterating themselves early on, I just close the video.
edit: One example of the ~11 minute video people was CinimaSins. They were never very good, but could be funny in small doses. When they started to stretch the video length, you started to realize how pedantic and media illiterate they were.
