> I’m not quite sure what you mean by YouTubeisms

The unending barrage of memes, the animations, floating emojis, the music constantly changing pace, the bright colors, "Youtube-voice", etc. etc.

Compare it with Ben Eater building a video card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7rce6IQDWs (of course the level of detail is higher but just focus on the style, voice, lack of animations and memes. He cracks a joke here and there, but isn't full of Youtubeisms.) And yes, it's a different genre. And yes, some people hate the genre that youtube is filled with these days.

I don’t think that’s really “youtubeisms”, I think it’s just the humor he wanted to use, and it’s a genre present across every social media platform. The only YouTubeism to me was the like and subscribe bs.
