Let’s say someone sends you a video to watch. How long can said video be before you decide it’s too long to watch?
For the purpose of this question, let’s assume you’re trying to decide whether to watch it or not right when you receive it. Let’s also assume that it’s moderately interesting (5/10).


Less the length, more the subject, source, and why are they sending it to me.
A video that explains a concept my friend has been trying to tell me about, or it’s about a shared interest, I’ll find the time to go through it.
A video that “seems neat, what a concept” better be shorter than 2 minutes.
A video from a news source “thought you should see this” not watching it and no response from me on that.
