If it’s gripping, and I don’t get distracted by something else more gripping, I’ll burn myself out binging everything. ADHD and OCD might play a role.

YouTube’s algorithm seems to think that if someone watches one video by a creator they’ve never watched before, that their feed of recommendations should immediately be filled by everything that creator ever made, so unless someone at YouTube made a conscious decision for it to do that, it would suggest that people generally go nuts and watch everything.

The fact I noticed and was annoyed by it suggests I’m the exception rather than the rule.

binge some and then it spaces out. like watched a bunch of sopranos the next generation today. I do tend to go and watch stuff from way earlier before watching a new thing that popped up.

If I have time, I’ll check out enough content to make sure. If I’m bored, I’ll watch/listen to a lot.

I space everything out.

I like to have some time between books by the same author. This isn’t a hard and fast rule, because I’ll make an exception if it’s a series.

I’m autistic and I have ADHD, so it’s a bit of a toss up. Sometimes they demand I go through an entire thing in a day. Other times it’s years later and I’ve barely made progress. I never know what I’ll get, but it’s more likely to be the latter if there’s more content. When there’s a long backlog my brain tends to check out earlier because it’s too busy focusing on everything I haven’t done yet.

I usually burn through it.

I burn through the catalogue, me. Musicians, listen to every album, typically in reverse chronological order. Authors, finish the series I started with then read the mist popular series, then the rest of their books in chronological order. Visual artists, I’ll sift through in whatever order I can find their works and then loop back to my favorites for closer study. Videogame studios, usually in order from cheapest to most expensive.
