try that too, though. jazz is a good candidate. any of the 'chill' or 'coffee shop' jazz videos that are hours long become upbeat and neat.

i also recommend trying it with retrowave because then it's like it becomes actual music!

I listen to podcasts at 2x speed and YouTube videos at 1.75x speed. It just saves time.

We have a limited time on earth and a constantly growing amount of media to experience.

I watch TV shows at 1.5x if I can.

i do it for audiobooks, which i rarely listen to. i also don't watch videos of people just talking about shit, but i'd imagine i'd do the same, because it's just empty fluff anyway no matter how fast or slow it gets to you.

This seems like the worst way possible to enjoy media, but you do you.

Yeah, I don't get it either. It's (for now) a free country, so I guess there's nothing against it.

Once I started doing this, I couldn't go back. Even 1.75 speed sometimes

So many Youtubers talk slowly or pad out their videos. You really get the same level of entertainment in less time 85+% of the time (at least for non music videos as TC said)

Only downside is often quick visual gags go by too fast

But man I reccomend it too. You can almost double the amount of videos you watch.

i did find one spooky-type youtuber that was slowing his voice down and once you upped it it was really obvious.

Jrose11 might be the king of this

He does incredibly fun Solo Pokemon challenges (Mainly Gen 1) and his videos are usually over 35 minutes long. I reccomend him strongly.

But....he...talks....like....this....

He's Canadian and is basically the living version of that Simpsons joke where Bart is in a remedial program and the kid goes "I come. from Canada. and they think I'm slow. Eh?"

Here's an interesting question, would you subscribe to YouTube if they lock video speed settings behind subscription one day?

(Obviously this question is directed to those who are not subscribed)

I watch really long videos, like 4+ hours, at 2x speed, but only from one particular person. Otherwise I usually watch most others at 1.25 speed.
