Yep, I feel this. A few of my favorite narration YT channels have moved from being either colored captions or just background to the narrator standing in front of a camera and making ‘eye contact’ with it.

Kinda. I do get uncomfortable when someone in a YT video makes eye contact but not to a point where I have to scroll down. Looking away is usually fine.

For me, I scroll so I can peak at the bottom of the video and wait for it to cut elsewhere.

A quick way to break eye contact is to scroll.

personally i can’t stand it when it’s something i tune in for only for the content and they insist on putting themselves in there to build their own brand or whatever.

it’s like, “dude i came for the fucking spider, show me the fucking spider.”

the character’s chosen times to smile seems to match up with my pet peeve is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Scrolling down there page when the host is staring at you so you can listen to them (and see the bug on the table) without the eye contact

I don’t have autism but I’ve totally done this. No problems with most YouTubers but I find some of them…unsettling
