I have been doing youtube for a few years now and negative comments do no bother me. But it appears that there has been a trend to what people are complaining about here recently. Like regardless of what my video is about, they are all complaining about the same thing, almost as if they are collaborating on what to complain about. It does not matter if it is a new video or a video that is years old.
In the last couple weeks, it seems like I have seen a rise in snarky comments on my videos. All of the snarky comments appear to be geared towards TIME. It seems like all of them are basically, "Your video took more then 30 seconds, so it was TOO LONG! How dare you waste my TIME like that." Comments on my videos have ranged from irritated to down right fury. It just seems like people in general are angry and taking it out on complete strangers.
I have been doing youtube for a few years now and I am used to people that are rude or mean, but I am wondering if there is something deeper to this latest trend in comments directed specifically at the length of videos. It's like a law was passed somewhere that videos have to "Twitterized" (reduced to shortest possible length with the fewest words), or people have the RIGHT to be outraged at you for "Wasting their time".
Anyone else seeing this?
