Maybe just recycle your long form content into short form? I’m all for boosting your channel-shorts might be helpful!
This is a great idea
Yes!! I love the long videos most but I won’t ignore shorts if I see he has some lol
david please do this!!! we need the long form content, but i would also love something new in the form of shorts or tiktok
AND you can redo older videos from the Buzzfeed Tasty era for newer potential viewers.
Good idea, as an older person I detest short form garbage. it is just... agrivating. I don't take issue with it it is just the I hate it, I don't care who love it as long as I can have my 7 hour lore on obsure RPGs you can have your 0.03 seond lore flash on RPGs.
If you do the shorts, please continue doing the long videos as well! I much prefer long videos and would hate to lose them from you 😭
Same here. No interest in shorts but always happy to see his longer forms.
i agree the more david the better tbh i need more jokes david don’t hold back lol
I prefer the long videos and dont' really watch shorts, but you can do both and get a wider audience.
Agree with this comment - you could do both, but without the focus on shorts. Long videos are the best. Instead it might be a good strategy to use shorts in order to gain more followers via the algorithm, and convert them into watching the long vids.
I agree
Agree 👍💯
I am with you on not liking short videos. I am never happy that I watched one. They are just a dumb downed version of legitimate content. A kind of commercial for someone's real content. Your videos are always great. I know that you put a lot of effort and expense. They never disappoint. Thank you for all of your great quality content!
A commercial is a great way to put it!
I DEFINITELY prefer long form videos, I rarely click on shorts unless they're from RUclipsrs I REALLY like
Ok, South African here... Koeksisters can be eaten days or even weeks later (assuming they last that long). The trick is, the syrup needs to be ice cold and the koeksisters very hot when you dunk them, so they soak in a lot of syrup and become completely drenched. You can then keep them in the fridge or (in our house) the freezer. They don't fully freeze because of all the syrup, so they are very good eaten straight from the freezer.
Dear David,
My husband and i subscribed after seeing your pizzadilla review, and we have never missed a video since! We always look forward to seeing something new from you every week. We love what you do now, but we'll support you whatever decision you make.
And thank you for using your voice. The only thing that keeps me hopeful about the situation is seeing how many people care 💕
Thank you David❤ your opening statement brought me to tears. This needs to stop and I love you all the more for taking time to express this
It is great to see such a well written statement especially in the midst of silence! Reminded me of why I love this channel even more! Free Palestine
Dumb. The fact that you think Israel is worse than Palestine shows where you’re at… do some research
@@waltuhwhite9975Idiot.
@@waltuhwhite9975 I don’t think Israel is worse than Palestine. I know for a fact that Israel is the worst of all. Maybe you need to do some research
As a South African, I was so shocked to see koeksisters in the title! Very cool.
P.S. It’s pronounced “cook-sisters” 😊
Same!
Hi David! long term viewer of your content here. Short format videos would NOT discourage me from watching the long! I see content creators using the Shorts as a preview for their long format videos, uploading snippets of individual recipes and I really enjoyed those. Recycling your old long format content would be a great idea too! It wouldn't hurt for you to give Shorts a try
i don't love shorts for things i would actually want to try and make. i think the best outcome would be if you kept making long form vids and then chopped them up into shorts to cover the viewers who really engage with shorts and avoid longer videos. best of both worlds really. greets from canada!
I agree! And also from Canada!
Right? You have to rewatch it 50 times and then you just feel traumatized by the video, lmao
Hi David,
I’ve been following you for years - I want to say I was one of the first 10k subs - eagerly waiting for your latest videos and rewatching old ones not because I intend on trying the recipe, I’ve just always appreciated your personality and humor that came through in your voice overs. The first few seconds of today’s video have proven to me that I was right about you. So, I just wanted to say thank you for the laughs and smiles you’ve brought me over the years, as well as support for an important cause today ❤️
I’m not a frequent commenter, but I had to pop on the way I HATE the trend toward short form videos. I’m a strong believer that if your content is good, people will happily sit through a longer video. Keep up the good work!
I'm glad you linked to the original recipe from Middle Eats for the Kunafa, his channel is amazing if you like middle eastern food and I love seeing it represented.
Thank you for mentioning Gaza 👏🏼
👎
Incredible RUclipsr!! That opening statement hit hard and so incredibly in awe on your view on humanity ❤ 🇵🇸 being one of the very few RUclipsrs showing respect and grievance to all suffering 🍉
Pleeeeease don’t do short form videos! I watch your videos every day while getting ready for school or work cause you describe everything and I don’t have to watch to be able to understand what you’re doing
❤ thank you David for making Butter Mochi! The recipe our family used does not contain coconut. Ours has 1/3 cup melted butter, 1 box mochiko, 2 1/2 sugar, 1TSP baking powder, 3 cups milk, 5 beaten eggs and 1TSP vanilla.
Give that one a try as it is somewhat more solid.
Also I loved your message in the beginning as I have the same feelings.
I wanna try making this and gotta ask, do you mean a third of a stick of butter? Just wanna clarify lol
@@mememan7196 1/3 cup of butter. Also I’ve made it with less sugar because I forgot to check how much we had before hand, so it even works with 2 cups if you wanted to cut down the sugar.
@@moira329 awesome, thank you! gonna make some for my friends and I
I've been following you since I was a teenager, and I am so happy to see this. Thank you for standing up for what is right, and I sincerely hope that any hate you get from this neither reaches you nor deters you from being authentic.
love your videos man. they got me through a really hard time in my life. ive watched you for years but i almost died April 4th, 2022 i was in a coma and breathing tube with infections that went to my heart, they told my family i wasnt going to make it but somehow i did. i made it out with one less hand but im alive. but the month stay in the ICU/hospital i binged watched your videos and i dont know what i would have done without it. i had alot on my mind. not knowing if id walk again just the whole unknowing of the situation was scary. the doctors used to ask me if i liked cooking bc i always had your videos playing i remember to one time it was the mac and cheese one and the doctor was asking about your youtube. sorry for the ramble but thank you david ❤❤
Every video you make proves exactly why you're one of my favorite RUclipsrs, and this one is no exception! I kinda want to try the cheese Kunafa now.
I love the cooking as always, and it's great that you're voicing your support for the innocent people of Gaza that are being targeted by Isra*ls criminal regime. It's nice to see that there's still sane people in this world, despite all the lies that go around surrounding this subject.
Screw Israel but why are you censoring their name?
Im so happy you spoke up about Palestine i've been following your content from the beginning and i'm so proud!
Seriously! And a much better and more nuanced statement than you get from many politicians!
Me too! I am so glad to see that! Free Palestine and thank you David for speaking up for the oppressed!
Lol y’all clearly don’t know anything if you think Israel is worse than Palestine.
@@waltuhwhite9975lol? What is funny about this
@@clare8871 the takes given in this comment section.
Shorts would not be my thing personally. I enjoy sitting down with your videos to eat a meal while watching, and the longer the video the better in my mind. You are one of the only RUclipsrs I've consistently continued watching over the past 5-6 years :)
Wonderful video as always, but from the bottom of my heart thank you for your statement in the intro. Too many people refuse to say anything, and this is the most important event possibly of our lives. Thank you❤
I think if you don't enjoy shorts and you don't want to make them, then you shouldn't. There are lots of channels I'm subscribed to that either don't make them at all or only every ounce in a while and they seem to be doing well from what I can tell. I love your long form content and have been watching your videos for years now. I personally don't care about shorts and don't even watch them that often, even from channels I'm subscribed to.
Whatever you decide to do, just keep up the good work! Love your stuff!
Kudos on the opening text. Very brave. Love the channel keep up the great work, best to you and your family.
“Very brave” ? So dumb
@@waltuhwhite9975get a life boomer
Honestly if I saw you posted a short video I would probably go seek out the longer form version. I see it as more of an advertisement for a longer video.
I found you back in the early stages of your tasty food videos and always come back to your channel because they have a nostalgic, comforting and personable vibe that definitely contrasts many short form content nowadays. So I really enjoy your long form videos that are 10+ minutes and I don't think I'd enjoy specifically recipe/food testing videos in a short form as much as I do your current style. But if you choose to expand into short form content I definitely support that and would continue to watch your videos! Thanks for being so consistent the past few years ❤
Prefer your longer videos
David, I love koeksisters!! Literally my favorite treat to have around the holidays growing up in a South African household. The one suggestion I would have if you end up making them again, or to anyone else, is to have the bowl of syrup sit over some ice to keep it extra chilled, which will end up thickening the syrup.
As far as your short form dilemma, I'd say to use some older videos and convert them, because it might help bring people in. That said, I can't help but agree that the long form videos are my preferred method of viewing
Thank you for your statement, David! Free free Palestine! 🍉
Mad respect for speaking out David! Been supporting you since your first trying Buzzfeed recipes so it was so nice to see you stand up for what’s right!!
Love the longer videos, short format is not my jam, but will support whatever you do! 💚
All I can do, David, is echo what others have said here. Thank you for that intro and it's just sad so many people do NOT see the atrocities happening in the region, not just to Israeli's but Palestinians as well.
Dude hit Kunafa! Just, impressed. I've seen that dish humble chefs. Nicely done.
To be honest you are the only RUclipsr I started following and never missed one video since (or if I did I had a good excuse and I catched up straight away back to back all the ones I missed) - I am a bit ashamed to say how much time I lose on the shorts but all this to say that your videos are absolutely great : not too long, straight to the point, great comments and just perfect to watch when I want to chill, perfect entertainment. Shorts or no shorts from you, I don’t believe there is a wrong decision for your channel 😊
Thanks For acknowledging what's happening in Gaza and using your plataform for good david
Feels weird to me that suddenly after more than 200 days he comments on it idk
@@liora.5003 Do you want people to be convinced and take a stance, or do you want to punish people for taking time to come to your side? If you want to take the right side of things, you need to accept that moderates and other folk who are busy and may be consuming less information than you with different assumptions, and that it will take TIME for them to be convinced. If you just wanna glory in being on the right side, you'll never be effective. Build a coalition and stop being an asshole, or you die alone. That means not lording over people who eventually align with your stances, and sticking to your guns on the people yet to be convinced.
You’re one of the few quality long content creators left
You are literally the channel I look forward to upload the most each week!! I absolutely love your long videos and nothing would stop me from watching those. If you were to upload the shorts I’d happily watch them too for even more content, even if you repurpose the long videos into shorts but I’d never skip out on your long videos!
As for your question about shorts, maybe put a teaser for that weeks video as a short 🤷🏽♀️. I don’t watch shorts or have TikTok, I like long form videos as I watch them while working.
love the opening statement and wouldn’t mind shorts but definitely love the long videos look forward to them every week ❤
David thank you so so much for using your platform to speak up for Palestine 🇵🇸 you are much appreciated
It's great to watch you try making foods you're unfamiliar with - I think that aspect was really refreshing about this video. If you want to switch to also making shorts, I think a chunk of us might not watch them but have nothing against it, you'll likely bring in a new audience of people who like watching RUclips shorts. But the longer videos are enjoyable as well! I've been watching your channel for ages, ever since I got out of a toxic relationship in 2018, and I haven't stopped so something is still working 🙂.
I loved the scissors hacking off the cheese pull! 😂
Thank you for making your position on Palestine clear, David, you're a good dude. ❤ Free Palestine
I'm so happy you made kunafa! I tried it when I visited Palestine last year and was amazed at how good cheese can be in a dessert
David Seymour, Your videos are fantastic! I just had to subscribe!
As someone who just stumbled across your channel; I'd say I enjoy the long videos as I actually enjoy watching you cook the recipe, but also hearing your input and comments just sound nicer than simple, fast pace shorts that don't do much other than capture a few seconds of attention before the next swipe
These recipes were all so cool! Love to see you doing recipes from a variety of cultures
I honestly really appreciate your message at the start of the video, i'm glad to see more content creators making statements in support of Gaza
I enjoyed the recipes you made today. Great video!
Pickle Pizza is a hidden gem... savory throughout
Thank you for speaking up about Palestine, I rarely ever comment on videos but I am very happy you are using your platform to spread awareness.
Do some research on the conflict next time before showing your ignorance
@@waltuhwhite9975 found the Israeli lmao
@@Bigaku999 lol found the terrorist
Honestly I could have just stopped at your beginning blurb on Palestine and been content. Thank you for saying something. It's been mind boggling that more people don't.
long form videos all the way! just discovered you recently and I love your videos :)
This is amazing David, thank you for using your platform to raise awareness
Kunefeh is crazy one of the best desserts ive ever tasted in my entire existence. 😮 (rose water instead of orange blossom)
My family uses both
I love your long form content. I'm seeing a lot of my favorite RUclipsrs doing shorts as a preview of their long firm videos, and I prefer that.
My wife and I have been watching for years. Love you bud, if short vids will pay the bills and butter the bread go for it! I'll stick to these OG vids, always love the commentary and you have a really nice narrator voice. Oh and you're like a legitimately pretty great person that helps too ❤
Thank you for having the balls to talk about Gaza.
Idk why it’s surprising to see David to have the most balanced and reasonable take on the Israel/Gaza conflict I’ve seen from any influencer
I've never been more proud to be one of your supporters for so so many years!! Thank you for doing the right thing and standing on the right side of the history. Free Palestine 🇵🇸🍉
Hey, you should really try more Middle Eastern desserts, they are generally unique from the usual and are honestly heavenly. Im no expert and can’t think of many from the top of my head but some of them that you should try are pistachio baklava, date pudding etc OH and also medovik/ russian honey cake (it’s not ME but oh my lord, is it amaaaazing. I would suggest trying it from a place that makes it first. It is honestly heavenly). Suggestion, you should make a series where u try desserts and dishes from most of the cuisines all over the world, it would make a fun series which ppl will look forward to.
And as for yt shorts, as someone earlier suggested, it’s just better if u chop up videos to short form, ion think anyone who watches ur vid would leave, but ik for sure that more ppl would find you.
(Ps, for middle eastern cuisine a simole yet… hmm perfect way to describe is comfort food is, labneh zatar. It is very simple so you should try it out)
OH and THANJ YOU for spreading awareness. There’s not much EVVERYONE can do to help but even a little does alot and spreading awareness and factual at that one of the best things we can do to support. So glad that you took stance on it and didn’t stay quiet towards the atrocities happening to just normal humans
I like both long and short videos so I'm down for both. I also love that you're testing suggestions straight from your viewers! I think this is a really great idea for a series.
I really appreciate your message at the beginning. Thank you for being human. ❤️🍉
Loved your message at the beginning❤️🇵🇸
nothing will ever ever stop me from watching long form content. i love it so much. 4 hour video essay? give it to me! but use your editing talent to appeal to the algorithm. love u
David love your integrity for standing with gaza ❤
I hate watching shorts on yt, it’s the reason why I’m always on yt instead of tiktok. Your long videos are soooo soothing and therapeutic I wish they were wayyy longer!
Hope you're doing okay David! This video felt like you were feeling deflated and not as energetic as usual. Take time away if you need, we'll always be here
I love your long form videos, I enjoy them a lot
I love your long videos! ❤
I get the short video "requirement" that your peers pitch you, but (maybe my age is showing), I love the long form format. I just recently found your channel and have been enjoying going through your back catalogue. In saying that, go for the bag my dude! I think your old school (and a few new school ones) will come back to the channel for the longer versions just the same! Keep up the good work man.
I hate how much RUclips seems to be pushing creators to make shorter videos. If you make shorts, please keep making long form videos as well.
I love that you have brought attention to the injustice Palestinians are going through since October 7. I've been watching your videos for over a year now and love watching them. Keep doing your thing, David!
I watch the occasional short and that’s about it, but it def helps give a boost to channels. I’d say do shorts where you use footage from longer videos to show off one recipe you try and then promote the full video at the end
Lets go David. Thank you for your intro❤️
Also quick thing with the Kunefe, maybe a bit sacriligeous but my favorite way to eat them is with some cream on the top and peach slices alongside the base. But there's so much variety to what you can do with the dish,
Also, I think you should do short videos to boost your page BUT PLEASE DONT STOP DOING THE LONGER ONES!!! I love themmmm
Don’t stop what you’re doing! You are great at what you do 🎉
As a Turkish person, I am very impressed with your Kunefe skills. One of my favourite desserts!!
I do prefer long form content, but recently I've found a lot of new food/cooking creators through shorts. I think it's definitely something you should consider doing and something I encourage, as I've seen it be really effective just in my own experience as a viewer ^^
Something that may encourage people to watch the long versions could be if you end the short as you take a bite of the food but not show your reaction (some may be curious to come look for it), or have some slightly different commentary from your longer content/leave things out in the shorts that would make people want to watch the longer videos to know more. (Ie. ASMR type shorts could be fun to try, where you just don't have a voiceover in the video.)
I've also noticed from my personal experience that some sort of humor seems to help with gaining views with shorts, I don't remember their names but there are two cooking creators I found and enjoyed due to the type of humor they expressed (and for one of them, it also continued in the comments).
I think you just have to do a lot of experimenting to see what works for both youtube/views and for yourself, what style is the easiest for you to keep up with making, things like that. I'll keep watching these longer videos tho and hope all the best for you 😁
I think it’s worth nothing that the there’s two type of koeksisters in South Africa. Both equally amazing!!! There’s the Afrikaner version, which you made in the video, and then there’s the Cape Malay version. The Cape Malay version is a softer yeast doughnut with a ton of spices! (naartjie peel, aniseeds, cardamom to name a few) fried and then cooked in a sugar syrup that gets slightly sticky and topped with shredded coconut!!! They’re AMAZING! please give it a go :)
You should try making "kue klepon" from Indonesia! It's my favorite traditional snack/dessert ever!
At some point in life, short videos just inevitably came and flooded my social media eventho i've never used tiktok or ever feel like using it lmao. But yeah, in the case of youtube shorts, i still do watch the long form vid if the short is pretty intriguing. I don't think it's an utterly bad idea to hop on the shorts trend, but on the other hand if you absolutely despise making it or even watching it, then you really don't have to
I love ur long videos, please keep doing them!! Maybe u could use shorts as teasers for long form?
David I have been a long time viewer and I have always loved your content. But right after your opening message for this video, I love and support you even more!
I don’t like and usually don’t watch RUclips Shorts. If I want short videos I’ll get on TikTok. But I like your videos the way they are now. I tend to only watch creators on one platform and I’d probably stick with you here on RUclips and so not see your short videos if you were on TikTok.
Who says you can't do both? Yes that'll mean less long form video content. But your success is worth the longer wait between videos
I knew I liked you before but now you're probably my favorite youtuber. I'll watch anything you make, just do what you enjoy creating
hi David! been a long time watcher for...so long i can't remember. i always watch your videos when i'm eating. i also watch joshua, thatdudecancook, and a few others but you're my first choice. i only watch shorts every now and again but would love if you kept your long form videos. i like them more and your format is simply the best out there!
i totally prefer the long videos rather than shorts... i almost never watch shorts, and im sure im not the only one !!
I used to wake up on saturday morning and have my cereals in front of your video of the week... Today it may not be the same routine but I still like to watch your videos. I like your videos because you always do what you want the way you want. Shorts are like a lifeless resume of another content fir most of the youtubers, and you're not like most of the youtubers. The little text at the beginning proves that.
Shorts AND long keeping the long form is a MUST love watching your videos
Great to see koeksisters. Here in SA, koeksisters are kinda like with pasta in Italy. The only person who makes it the right way is your grandmother. No one agrees about the right way to make them, how many twists they should have etc. But I would say a perfect koeksister is crunchy on the outside and just full of syrup on the inside!
The butter mochi looks a lot like what we call pancake (pannukakku) in Finland! It's a flour, butter, milk and sugar mixture spread on an oven tray and baked but a lot thinner. It's typically eaten with jam, sometimes sugar sprinkled on top or whipped cream.
deep respect for your acknowledgement of whats happening in gaza
Thank you so much for posting about Gaza. It means a lot
I'm sure the shorts would appear in my recommendations, but I enjoy tucking in for your normal videos. They aren't too long anyway.
cheese in kunafa is so wild to me. my egyptian family has never put cheese in it, so it was weird when i actually googled the dessert and everywhere says there's supposed to be cheese lol
also, david! suggestion/request: do you think you could test out some keto recipes? i don't do keto but my dad does and i like to cook/bake things for him. but i feel like it might be difficult with how often stuff like almond flour shows up in those. thank you in advance if you ever decide to give this a go! i'm a very long time watcher, since the 3 ingredient cookie truffles, and just wanted to say i love your content 💙
That butter mochi is something my mom makes! So cool to see you make a variation of it. I honestly did not like it as a kid but appreciate now as an adult.
