What stops the comment sections (on any website) to have a video commenting option?<p>I'm wondering where are we with this. Is it starting to get popular or is it one of those things that we have the technology but it doesn't really fit in (not enough people want to broadcast themselves as comments)?<p>I cannot imagine 2-5 years from now and video commenting not becoming a default in comment sections but I do not have a great reason for it and it is just a cloud of feeling and vague reasons, am I wrong and missing something here?
Compared to text, creating and editing and watching video is incredibly time consuming. At least if quality is any sort of concern...e.g., writing a script is a 'best practice' for producing good video content; many video edits require reshooting; and there's no good technique for skimming video while picking up the important points.<p>That's outside of the attraction of video to naked people.
Who is ever going to watch video comments? I certainly would not. Most corners of the internet, this particular one being a rare exception, have comment sections that are less pleasant to enter into than an old septic tank. I don't need to see that in video form.
