The Truth About Slow Videos: Do They Really Drive Away Younger Viewers?

Do you think more realistic thumbnails that are toned down slower videos will mean that less younger viewers will watch No I don't think like younger I mean like even Disney shows right That young people watch like they have stories you know what I mean And they're not just like Go watch Up you know what I mean Dude the first two minutes of Up Exactly I mean older people watch it but the average person who watches it is probably a kid So it's not like the narrative that kids are overstimmed and don't have attention spans is not true I mean people just want good content And just because you slow something down doesn't mean it's good content right Like the thing is you know even though in my opinion I was doing things slightly wrong back in the day I still was doing cool original epic viral things that were inherently interesting right And so like if what you're doing is just not interesting then no one's going to watch It doesn't matter how you pace it You know what I mean So it's like I wouldn't like asking like oh if the video slowed down would kids want to still watch it Like that's it's just not even like that's like asking like if you eat an orange well you know what an apple tastes like It doesn't like it doesn't even make sense It's like kids like or whatever people of all ages will watch content if it's just good content And then you know and then you just optimize the pacing for what they would like which it just needs to kind of fit you know what doesn't hurt your head Yeah So dubbing is something I've been thinking about It's like dubbing is a form of syndication where it's like taking the same video and then being able to distribute it in other ways Yeah That's also something you've been doing on X I'm curious your experience with that
