Part of the problem is that anyone under 35 or so has been brought up on stuff like this. I remember watching a regular live TV show attempting to demonstrate some skill in the 90s with the volume muted....and it struck me that the camera was panning around like crazy, there were colour saturation effects applied, there was silly graphics.....without the soundtrack and music it all made no sense whatsoever. And the actual work of the camera operators, producer and such people was pretty poor.
What we're getting on Youtube now is a generation of people who have access to the tools, because any smartphone or basic digital camera can shoot decent quality video and editing software is available for free. Compare to the 90s when a camcorder was the only way to produce footage (or cine camera), editing was done on tape for the most part and required at least two machines plus vision and audio mixers....all cost a small fortune.
So now the tools are available to everyone, but they don't have any basic training. And they are brought up with "cool" videos where these "filters" are applied to make the accurate, crisp images look lo-fi. No concept of how to adjust the colours to actually look natural, no knowledge of how to record the audio, how to compose the image or when to zoom (and not)....and we get these awful videos.
I remember in the late 70s and 80s watching Open University education programmes....very dry, pure information with no superfluous graphics or fancy camera work....boring in some ways....but the pictures were composed properly, cameras were moved when it served the lecture, graphics were minimal maybe graphs or diagrams to explain what was being said by the presenter....the basics were there. I bet the people who made those programmes could shoot a 5 minute video on photography far better.
