  • Video-only link.
  • No transcript, synopsis, or even point of view in the post.
  • Provocative click-bait title.

No thanks. I come to discussion forums for discussion and legitimate news, not to spend my time slogging through some influencer's video to bolster their view count.

When they don't respect my time enough to at least outline their key points in text, and there's no obvious reason why the content must be video, I find that it's vanishingly unlikely that they have anything interesting to say.

This person(?) does seem to like filling my front page with blind links :-\ I don't really like blocking people(?) here but ugh, I'm not gonna go check a dozen pages a day just to find out what they are. ... Actually this one seems to have taken over posting a link to every post from a particular news site after I blocked the last one. Dunno why any community needs that, the site itself surely has them all better presented.

Whatever, let's see if another one pops up 🤷
