        Not sure if you’re mostly joking but TT has tons of long-form content as well. It’s one of the main reasons I don’t use it - all my recommendations are super interesting 7+ min videos (I think I get too anxious to open the app knowing it’s going to open up to some super in-depth breakdown on a very specific topic.

        I am saying I am not watching the video. I would prefer a tight paragraph or two about whatever the videographer thinks are the extraordinary circumstances.

          Honestly, the title of the video is succinct, you’ve got all the information you need to know if you’re interested.

            If I’m not going to watch the video why would I click through to read the title? I went and skimmed the wikipedia article instead.

              I mean the title of this post… But I’m glad you read the wiki article

                The title in the post is a tease. It doesn’t actually say anything?

            Well how else would they make your post about themselves? I mean, would they even feel superior if they hadn’t bother to comment
