It's easier to say what I like.
Videos that teach you something useful. Example: good workout videos, how to vids.
Longplays with NO TALKING, gameplay vids WITH NO TALKING.
Review videos that focus on the device/game being shown.... IDGAF WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE.
What I hate the most, stupid... Stupid expressions on their preview thumbnails..... Actually, it's a tie. I HATE reaction videos.
I don't give a damn how somebody reacts to hearing classical music for the first time or some BS like that.

I don't get those "react" videos. Some chick has over 200 videos of her reacting to watching movies. Why? Who cares?
People shitting their pants & crying when Luke showed up in The Mandalorian... So exaggerated and narcissistic.

God I hate those! Also, "reviews" of products that are just a listing of the specs from the manufacturer.

It's up to the viewer to decide what's worthwhile. You can't just say 'everyone who makes videos deserves to get paid'.

I hate streamers that are over the top. You can be a streamer and have an actual normal personality and people will still watch you. This is more for video game streamers than anything else.

Repair videos are fine but the 'I bought this broken device on purpose on ebay, can I fix it' premise annoys me.

Youtubers that are loud for no reason.
It always feels like they're just trying to appeal to hyperbolic children with low attention spans ( which tbh is probably exactly what they're doing ).
I don't like people who are fake, so when someone yells and talks really loudly and acts ultra excited to a completely unrealistic level about everything I find it really annoying.
It's as if some peoples entire identity as a human being is to be a fan and excited about products and it's just really sad and pathetic.
You're not even a person anymore at that point you're just a marketing tool for corporations.
Same with people who smile constantly ( they usually have whitened their teeth too ), it's just fake and creepy it makes you come across as deranged.
It's especially awkward when they're not talking and someone else is, and they have to sit next to them and you can literally see them physically struggle to keep the smile going lol.
And lastly self-appointed experts who have a huge ego and think that they know more than they actually do and like they speak from a position of authority just because they have followers.
And if anyone questions anything they say they get really butthurt about it.
Just because you have people who listen to you and pay you money doesn't mean that you're right, there's hundreds of thousands of insane people who buy '' miracle juice '' from pastors and think that it's going to cure their cancer.
It doesn't matter how wrong or insane you are you it's the internet there's literally an audience for everything and any opinions.
No matter how wrong you are you can still end up with millions of people listening to you, so be at least a tiny bit humble maybe.

I mean like that:
- You have checkboxes when you upload to set whether your video is spoiler free, light on spoilers or heavy on spoilers (endings, major deaths etc.)
- Heavy spoilers can be included in search filters
- You lied about spoilers and someone reports you
- A mod verifies their claim
- Your video is removed and you get a strike
- Profit

You know what channel kind of annoys me? Girlfriend Reviews.
They come off as "OMG I'M SO QUIRKY LOOK AT ME". And their reviews are overly sentimental.

Something I just thought of because I saw him in my recommended, and wow this is going to be a VERY unpopular take I imagine.
But I really dislike Youtubers who hide behind '' it's just a joke bro '' to avoid criticism or having to defend their position.
And I feel like Dunkey does this a lot, I think that he's very sneaky about how he selectively hides behind his often ambiguous persona to avoid people criticizing his takes that are more serious, the TLOU2 thing comes to mind but he does this quite a lot honestly.
He sometimes wants to try and make actual points and make claims and it's very easy for him to do it unchallenged and to just outright dismiss other peoples views and opinions on things and then hide behind his persona when challenged on it and his fanboys will just go '' lolo it's dunkey bro just a joke don't b so srs ''
Like if you're some big Youtube channel ( especially political ones ) and you preach your views and opinions like they're the gospel and then aggressively dismiss opposing views and send your followers after people for disagreeing with you then how are you any different than some insane cult leader?
If you're that insecure about it then don't engage with it to begin with?
And also the repetitive references and memes, Dunkey is an example of that too I dunno how people can repeat the same in-jokes for years on end and still think that they're funny.
I get having catchphrases but damn.

Most has already been said, but the inability to talk for a minute without a trillion cuts is just ridicilous. Are you really not able to tell me your argument or your 4 sentences without making a cut after just a few words? Makes me wonder if they sound like a toddler if they were live and needed to talk freely. And it's even reading from a script and they are not able to read properly.

Unsubbed to Dunkey ages ago. Can't remember why, think I did just start to find him tedious as well. Maybe it was after he was on the H3H3 show or something.
His old videos were classics at the time.
