Great, now I have nothing to do. Time to go touch grass.
Idk for other people but personally i just grew up enjoying alot of content creators so i just legit didnt have enough time to keep up with vids it wasnt becuase they were too booring for 1x speed. Its not like its hard to pick up pn details some people talk slow enough you can barely tell its sped up
You watch at 2x speed to prevent yourself from getting bored. I skip around in 10 second intervals when I get bored. We are not the same.
This is actually underrated

It's such a sadness
as someone who works 4-5 days a week and has school in the morning, i watch 2x speed just to get through my subscriptions and have the time to do homework lmao. I'm not someone who can watch and do homework at the same time.
but also, I don't like how much I end up watching on UA-cam in the first place.
i minmax my NL viewing experience by changing to 2x speed whenever the bit starts burning valuable time
I also skipped 10 seconds ahead every time he caught me 2xing

Currently watching at 0x speed (the video is paused)
After a year or two of 2x i realized i was retaining close to nothing and would either have to rewind a bunch or concede to "not having watched" the video at all
1.5x is a good sweet spot between speeding up slower talkers and staying understandable
You are the only person in this comment section brave enough to admit it.
that’s my thinking of it, people retain everything on 2x?? seems unlikely
true, 2x is good for something that's only for entertainment value, but if it's something you're learning for the first time and want to retain 1.25 or 1.5x is ideal
i think you can get used to it if you have watched stuff for years on 2x speed

Watching 4x to spite the egg
I watched 7 2-hour online lectures on 2x last saturday.
Now I know your professor didn't assign seven 2hr lectures in a single week. Any reason you let them build up since the midterm?
@@jackl8025cause he watches them all in a row at 2x speed. bro is build different
@@jackl8025 Sure, there are reasons. The main one is that I have a job. I mean, I work from home, so, in theory, I can watch a lecture and work at the same time, but I don't really want to do that. The other, much less important reason is the way prof conducts those lectures: he talks relatively slowly and takes a lot of pauses (he wants someone to reply 'yeah, we got it' every time he explains anything). Not a fan of listening to them live.
Every day i use modded youtube to increase the speed of my viewing experience by 0.05 %
I Started Watching At 2x To Spend Half As Much Time On UA-cam But Now I Just Watch 2x As Much.
I have cracked out the web development tools and cranked the playback rate to 3x on more than one occasion.
Me watching this at 3.5x as per usual, unbothered
its not about finishing the vid faster or getting to watch more vids. the vids are just more enjoyable in the moment at 2x speed.
The math is simple. A given NL video will give me one laugh every two minutes. 2x speed... one laugh every one minute. More efficient
Speeding up anything not school/work related is PSYCHOTIC
people really do be minmaxxing a leisure activity
They've had their brain washed to the point that they think consuming content for leisure is a required activity. Only way I can imagine 2x... I think back to watching some anime when I was a kid that had 1000 episodes like Bleach or something. I would skip 'filler'. Maybe this is the mindset? But, when a person is improving the whole time, how do you predict the filler and or care anyway when making the decision to consume this content... Yeah, I think I don't get 2x people either after all
I'm a 2x watcher, but I guess the main reason is why not. I can perfectly comprehend the content at that speed. I don't think it's that crazy.
You could go from the other side and say "why yes" but at that point 2x vs 1x becomes a simple personal preference because there aren't many arguments for either side.
@@art0007i For all the 2xers out there... I hope you find something you enjoy enough that you want to watch it in 1x just so you have more time with the content. May your journey towards conditionalization be fruitful.

Ngl I think every UA-cam video I’ve seen in the last 4 years has been on 1.5x at the slowest
I love it when NL says something like this and the comments of a library youtube video are just seeing whoever they can attack in the replies with rage bait or light trolling. When they either don't care or do the same shit but twice as often.
I have a rule for adjusting speed that I only use it for educational content. They literally talk more slowly for the purpose of making it easier to understand for people unfamiliar with the subject, or people for whom English isn't their first language.
Funnily enough, though, my only exception to this rule is NorthernLion content.
This comment section is depressing.
yeah...
@@TheLibraryofLetourneau Oh god, getting noticed by the librarian is not something I ever expected and for this comment? Oof ;-;.
That aside, thank you for all the time spent putting together the bits and banter videos. Recently got put onto NL via clips on Twitter, (EOEO connections clip, Coke Freestyle machines with a dial bit) and as NL once said "the only person chat hates more than the streamer is other chatters" so I don't watch streams live, so I've been really enjoying these highlights at 1x speed always. :D

When I started taking Adderall UA-cam videos became way easier to watch at 1x
Bro I watched this on 2x speed, I got an edam tomorrow can't be wasting my time on watching yt 😭
Fuck im in the blast radius
But at the start is so true, UA-cam is so bad with recommending you stuff, watch 1 video of something obscure and 50%of your new recommendations are of the same topic. I very often use the "don't recommend this video/channel" and also go into my watch history and delete stuff I'm not interested in.
I should probably watch more stuff on 2x since my adhd brain gets distracted on most videos. If they're talking so fast I can barely keep up, then I don't have time to be distracted.

he's right, we watch videos to pass the time and if you 2x every vid you're going to run out of content to watch. you gotta have a scarcity mindset fellas
I feel like the golden age of the internet trained me for this, because there literally was only so much content that existed for the thing you were interested in, and then if you ran out too fast you had to like, make fanfiction about it
so real and co-signed
@@JD-wu5pfif ur trapped at work for x amount of hours u gotta have the scarcity mindset
Bro if you really want there's infinity content to watch. Especially considering most people here now probably weren't around in even the Rebirth days, let alone the old Isaac days. I'm certain that even just watching key series: Balatro, Isaac, SAP, Backpack Battles, Darkest Dungeon, Slay the Spire, and maybe Gungeon, Misc., etc. it would take you multiple days even at 2x speed. Let's assume for a moment you watch 40 hours a week, literally as much as a full-time job, and each series is 100 hours on average (probably low for most of those), that's 5 weeks to finish 2 old series, and during that time he's made more than 125 hours of new content. Let's say for sake of simplicity that consuming all of the streams means those series won't get longer. This leaves 15 hours a week for old content. You would take 20 weeks to finish 3 old series. And this is a pretty low estimate imo. And that is one creator. I'm not a 2x guy myself, but mathematically I can understand why people do it.
Watching this in 1.75x because my youtube lags on 2x
Serious answer: Honestly, there are a good deal of things that I will watch at 1.0x, it really depends on how much I want to consume it. Like, if I'm watching something for background noise, 2x makes it easy for me to not listen too hard and just let it play out, but if I'm watching something to either pay attention or to remember a bit more, or to listen to it a bit more attentively, I absolutely will watch at 1x. It's less of for maximizing time, as while I have more time if I watch it in 2x, I feel that really, it's like "Are they just playing something like Stardew, and I just want to have a general good time" vs "I want to watch the bit itself or understand this recipe or concept". Sometimes, letting it play at 1x will make me focus a bit more, and sometimes I want to turn my brain off a bit, which can make 2x nice.
Edit: Oh, and since I forgot to bring it up, sometimes I use a long-ish video (like, 1-2 hours), and say that this is the last thing I do on UA-cam before doing something productive, so it is sometimes nice to finish it, and then have a bit more time to work, as the deadline to start is simply when I finish the video.
Me checking how much is left on the librarian compilation so i know when i can get back to doing work because i'll only watch this one librarian video before i continue working.
Do people not just stop the video when they need to do something and watch more of it later? I thought that was normal.
Same here.
I've been a 2x Andy since UA-cam rolled out the feature... I think I'm cooked
I will say that I watch Etho videos at 1x. We get like 30min/week so I gotta savor them
The 0x bit is sooo good I had to rewatch that in 1x.
I have economics work to get through, and revision to be doing. I just finished lunch but still have 10 minutes or so of this video left. I'm not going to edge myself by leaving it for the next break so instead I watch this at 2x. This is a prime example of why 2x is genius.
Edging does not increase general demand and is a net harm to everyone.

Many answers you seek can be found within yourself.
Started watching vods of dnd at 2x and now every time I watch something that isn't on 2x its super slow like youtube makes things slower
Sorry to hear about your brain degrading.
Been watching 2x since 2018. If I return to normality I might actually contemplate my life choices.
watching it at 2 times speed is not comparable to watching two videos at the same time it took me years to get up to the speed im at right now (3.2x) i think its like a thing you get used to its like the thing where people read slow but if you show one word at the time super fast people can still read it
I 2x because most videos are artificially lengthened by people talking slower or filler cotent (youtube pushes this with how ads are setup at certain intervals). Also I enjoy listening to criminal interviews with a ton of pauses between questions so 2x cuts out most of the filler.
Skipping constantly
Once you get used to 2x, 1x feels like 0.5x.

If he's joking +2, if he's serious this dude is so cooked
Yo, I was the one from this stream who wrote the really long defense of 2x speed watching, only for him to say he wasn't gonna read it.
I saved it by saying that my real opinion was that I just liked it more. He immediately read that response. Easy appeal to a 90s-maxer.
Jokes on him. I'm watching this video on 2x speed right now.
Also, for the record, I never adjust the speed of any music I listen to or any shows or movies that I watch. I only watch super long UA-cam content at 2x speed. Stuff like stream vods, podcasts, or video essays that should've been edited down more. I would say anything 1 hour or longer. Sometimes I might watch a 30 min video at 2x if I'm in a hurry.
A note on that: There are some really good video essays out there, but a lot of video essayists are just making their videos longer for no reason. Not sure why there's been such a shift, but some people make 3 hour long videos that could've easily been half as long. Doubling the speed makes it a lot more tolerable. Also, some people just talk really slowly, so having the increased speed can help.
Occasionally, I do feel like a crazy person for watching at 2x speed, but I don't really think it's that odd. I disagree that this is anywhere close to brainrot or being deranged or any of the other things that some of the weird comments on this video are saying. As a content creator myself, I don't really care if anyone were to watch my stuff at 2x speed unless I made music.
Brother, I just like it more.
honestly it sounds completely insane until you start doing it
watching this video at 2x specifically to spite NL
I've watched so much of NL at 2x that catching a stream live isn't usually worth it - its just too slow for me now
4:08 I'm so surprised to see that absolute bar was dropped by Jordan Peterson
2x speed is brainrot. Only valid excuse is when watching something that you don't want to, like a school lecture.
I’d watch college lectures at 1.5x speed it really does make up for any dawdling on the professors part but isn’t so fast that you lose what’s going on, if I’m watching something in my free time idk the motive of watching anything sped up
I’m curious if the video lengths in the thumbnail are from Librarian’s videos, but not curious enough to verify
i watch youtube at 2-4x speed depending on the persons speaking. i watch a lot of educational content though, and a lot of those people speak very slowly. i also like watching podcasts, but i watch news based podcasts for the most part, id rather just get my information quicker since i have the capacity to process what they say at 2-4x speed. however, as a result of this i also watch the other random videos that i watch on youtube at 1.5-2x speed depending on the person.
Around the time he started playing SAP I tried to watching NL at 0.8-0.9x speed so there would be more daily content, but it fucked up the tempo too much. This channel was the savior.
1.5 speed is peak, you don't have to read subtitles, but Ryan's long bits with big gaps and the Jacky filler when they input answers. Trust me, it's better, plus you get new Balatro music lmao
Ryan missed a small point about lectures vs entertainment; lectures are often about information transferal, and humans can process information pretty quickly so you can quite often go 1.5x or 2x (especially when instructors talk slowly!). Entertainment is about enjoying the moment, and so speeding up is detrimental to the experience. Case in point: Part of my enjoyment of Ryan's content is his radio-voice. If I sped it up, a large part of the point in watching it is lost.
But if watching a video tutorial on this that or the other where the narrator has little charisma, please just get the info into my brain quickly. Sure, it takes time to process information, but you can easily pick up when information is valuable enough to be processed. There's a lot of fluff.
2X andy here to say that I'm watching 2X so I can consoom more Librarian content

Why even bother enjoying something if you need to hurry for it to be over so you can do something constructive.
@@fgqgqlfqsfsffeffbecause human brains aren't built to be 100% productive 100% of the time, sometimes people want a little break, and it feels nice to finish a video rather than leaving it undone
@@fgqgqlfqsfsffefffor me it's the fact that 1x is too slow, I just simply can't enjoy a video at normal speed. I almost never really watched anything until I found a plugin that allowed all media increase to a desired speed. I've watched so many movies, shows, and UA-cam video's I otherwise never would've on normal speed.
nothing to do with having to hurry through it, if that's my goal I watch at 3x
0.5 speed? You use playback at all?
I pause every video and only advance it by one frame at a time until im ready to complete it.
This one is specifically targeted at me, I've watched all the bits and banter on 2x
I've seen people watching videos at 2x speed, it gives me confusing anxiety, like they're rushing somewhere and I'm falling behind. Makes my heart beat hella' fast for no damn reason. Weird.
I mean…I started watching commentary videos/documentary videos at 2x because I don’t have an hour or two.
But now for me it’s like, high effort content and short time content is always at 1x. But watching stuff at 2x makes me feel like I have more free time…I just hate the feeling of finishing a day at work or school and not having enough time to unwind and this helps a lot of the time tbh.
Well I just watched the whole playlist of NL playing Hollow Knight in 1.5x
2x on everything including shows and movies
whats the rush are the shows and movies going away
That is crazy. UA-cam videos are slop entertainment, shows and movies are (technically) art, so there is actually a value to experience them as intended.
I've been watching UA-cam at 2x speed since like 2017 but I never take that to my shows or movies.
2x music?
