Would be great if there could be a rule that if you post a link to youtube/video source you need to provide a short summary. Those post with video links only are starting to make up a significant part of the posts and add near zero value to the discussion. Also many don't have hours to kill to watch youtube videos or it's actually blocked or download caps.

You don't have to watch if you don't want to. Whether a vid adds to a discussion or not is subjective.

I somewhat agree for original posts, but not for subsequent posts. Just ignore them if you don't think they meaningfully add to the conversation.
