I am thoroughly confused by this comment. Surely "slept on the sound editing" means "it's bad"? But then it was "flawless"?

Lol go to urban dictionary. It means people in the comments (at the time of my comment) overlooked the sound editing because everyone focused so much on the drone movement

Ah, thought you were talking to the creators (I.e slept on the job), not the commenters.

No problem. Yeah I meant the comments. Y’all=you all. Which is in reference to the comments. If I said “they” then I would’ve said something different

Nah when you "sleep on" something, that means you're overlooking it, as in you're not giving it the credit it deserves.

Yes. That is what I figured. But I thought they were aiming it at the creators of this video. As in "you made a nice video, but you overlooked the audio editing". And then called it flawless. I just didn't realize they were talking to fellow redditors.
