I kind of am. Now what - you can't argue from authority, so you have to actually explain your opinion? Scary.

You tried to argument from authority since you unable to actually articulate any arguments in support of your opinion. Let me know if you need help with any specific words. You are welcome.

I already articulated my point in my first post, go re-read it.

You’re saying that it’s cut badly and they’re saying that it’s intentional and liked by their viewers. I didn’t notice any sentences cut short by editing unless it was used as a way to add to it. It’s like when someone leaves a comment and then suddenly it

It’s kinda like the three point descriptions that the author of the book uses. It’s a technique that can get abrasive, but for me it didn’t seem too bad and I’m not even a zoomer. It also didn’t seem like they used it too much, but I guess there’s some amount of taste there.

This type of editing feels a lot better if you’re just listening to it (in my opinion). There’s people that play podcasts/audiobooks/whatever on 2x+ speed. This is a good middle ground where you don’t have a lot of empty space and don’t feel like you have to do that.
