Remember when people did this kind of thing because they were genuinely interested and wanted to share their interests with the rest of the world?

    Passion doesn't pay the bills unfortunately. I also reject the assertion that getting paid better for something or changing your reporting approach means that you can no longer be "genuinely interested".

    Monetizing of the online video "industry" directly lead to this kinda of video where a 2 minute talking point is padded out to more than 20 minutes. A passionate person would be trying to get the point across for their viewers not getting the 5th mid-roll ad in.

    Watch videos by Mike Harrison (Mike's Electric Stuff) or Ben Krasnow (Applied Science), while they do occasionally run long, the videos are so dense that you can't skip 75% and still know what's going on.

    Gamer's Nexus sums up their video in the first 60 seconds, typically, for people exactly like you who don't want to watch 20 minutes videos.

    Some of us, on the other hand, like the content and watch all 20 minutes. You don't get to gatekeep what a passionate person would do.
