        Depends on the presenter. Some I have to go as low as 1.25 and others (thankfully rarely) 2 is not enough.

        Let me tell you about Freetube, where it let’s you have a custom max limit of playback speed. I find myself sticking to 5x for the past couple of weeks.

    Oh I still have this, I’m just better at powering through now. My siblings had no issues. Shout to be heard type of household, and I cant shout very well.

    Didnt help that my mother has a meandering way of talking and thinking:

    e.g. “tetris, I want you to do something for me, remember that curtain rail that I got from Argos before it closed down, we went there with Henry’s mum, the one who hurt her shoulder playing tennis, and now Henry’s going to join the army, hopefully not helping the IDF, which by the way did you see the news…”

    I now stop her at the first tangent, and kindly state to her “mum, finish your sentence” where she then realises that she’s holding me hostage and then gets to the point
