The brainrot is real (At least in \c\Videos)
I post occasional video links in Videos from time to time, and the amount of people asking if it's worth watching is insane. Anything over 5 minutes is "too long"
The next complaint is about the videos actual title. Apparently any video title is "click bait."
I swear I'm gonna have to integrate subway surfers gameplay into the videos soon.
Decent rant. I guess when doomscrolling, stopping to explore a video might not hit that dopamine button which is why people ask if it's worth it. Also, your post titles don't say what the video is about which is why they're called click bait. It's not brain rot, it's just people not wanting to waste time getting invested in a video which requires attention, sound and a solid chunk of time - not always available to a scroller.
If I watch a video from the fediverse, it's about something I know I'm interested in, or is 10 seconds long.
