Am I the only one who has never been able to watch YouTube since it became more than a two minute clip of how to do a thing? The whole format of stretching content to reach some arbitrary monetization benchmark is unwatchable to me.

Good thing there's plenty of content that isnt that format on the site

Sure, I guess it does exist based on the sheer volume of content on YouTube. I'd just have to wade through a pile of schlock to get to it. Show me the part of YouTube that only has videos that cut right to the chase without meaningless exposition, ads and self promotion littered throughout the video.

I love how Skippy62able has never changed , I find he is a channel that perfectly embodies what old youtube was really about
