Trying to keep up with vtuber happenings:
false videos: ~15 minute total video, usually timestamps in the playback bar you can read to skip over topics you have no interest in. can even set it to 1.5x playback speed and still understand what's said. not as much depth, basedness, or schizos. more cringe.
virtual asylum: spend 30 minutes to an hour catching up from the previous day's last browsing stopping point, still skimming and skipping over stuff because there's so much. More entertaining and more interaction, so it sucks you in even more. oh you missed a day or two? time investment x 2. you missed a week? might as well just give up.
reading both here and kf (when it actually loads): how much time do you actually have left to watch vtubers?
I used to try to keep up with all the clip channels I like. I'd load up videos in tabs and they'd sit there for days while I tried to get through all the funny stuff. Eventually days turn into weeks. Tabs turn into bookmarks. give up and try to keep up with recap videos. fail because youtube notifications are flooded. There's too much content. Too many endearing personalities/characters, too many funny moments, and not enough time.
Yup, I hardly ever watched live to begin with and relied mostly on clips, but these days I find myself reading about vtubers more than watching them.
