I hate youtube channels where the owner read some story or article while showing his face which does not add any value to the video.

A good example about what I am talking about here:

I remember a YouTube channel with the name of Lazy Masquerade, it was about crime stories, long time ago he wanted to stop adding crime photos to the video and just record himself reading. At that moment I stopped following and watching his videos as it was bad.

I just don't like when YouTube channels do this.

Could you just not watch those videos, then?

„Reaction“ videos, and especially whole reaction channels are the worst. For every one that might add something of value there are thousand others that are absolutely vapid and useless.

It is mindblowing to me that someone would watch something like: „hey its your guy uselessperson again. Y’all wanted me to listen to XYZ. Let’s go [listening to music] okay, that was cool. What do you think? Comment below, like, subscribe, hit the bell and see you next time“

Why? Seriously.

I haven’t seen Lazy Masquerades face for a long long time now, aside from in odd-occasional paid promotion bits. The last couple of years at least its been the usual relevant photos and stock footage, perhaps losing viewers like yourself made him switch back to what worked?

I don't know, after he did that I lost all interest in his channel and never bothered to check it again..
