2:30 tends to be my ideal because most people fail at making a 3 or more min videos work.

As long as the video is actually good it shouldn't matter. People will always bitch about length unless you give them a experience worth while. And even then there will be some twats whining.

Kids like fast and quick videos, cuz it makes them feel better about their premature ejaculation. :roll:

I don't really care, but I like well-structured videos that spend whatever their running length well. Long videos are obviously more challenging, since pacing in them becomes really important - as much as people like to blame attention spans for lower popularity of short videos, it really is often the editor's fault; other times it's the sources' fault, since some music and visual sources can just get downright repetitive after a few minutes. So to editors, really the advice should be to consider their sources and ability to create good structure and pacing before going into a project.
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

so many blow their lode in the first 20 seconds. It's annoying.

I responded to some spam and got some pills that fix the problem. I can last up to 60 seconds now.
