(90,948 posts)I don't have teevee and rely on DU for much of the news links and videos, especially if I missed the livestream.
I like the late night comedy vids as well as many of the animal and other stuff videos. I don't watch them all but I am a slow reader with dyslexia so videos actually save me time and provide visuals in many of them that I would bot see otherwise.
I also don't mind those with just a talking head because some are of inestimable value to me.
I refuse to open xitter video links, though. I'll wait until the content shows up on a different platform. Those are the post that annoy me, the ones that are just a xitter link with no text. If it's an OP with enough text, I'll REC it but not if it's just the link. Fuck it, I won't open a xitter link.
If you don't like the videos, don't open those OPs.
