I love it, this is perfect, straight to the point with no bullshit talk. You told us in one minute more info than some youtubers would do in 10 minutes with their shit talk that has nothing to do with title. They talk too much but say nothing, but hey gotta get that 10 minute in for add revenue. Keep up the good work and keep being direct I love it
