While I love the outros and always look forward to them, I can understand that it's a lot of work. Also, I'm guessing that having to add them after every video slowly takes away the fun. So I'd be happy to see them every now and then, when you really feel like it!

I said I’m neutral, but I’m really not. I love the outros. The humor on your channel is one of the main reasons that I subscribed and stuck around. That being said you need to do what is best for your channel, not just best for me. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed when I watch one of your videos and there isn’t an outro.

I love the outros, they are hilarious, but definitely do what's best! Love your videos!

The outros (along with other family cameos) are one of the ways I can get my wife to watch the videos (I like to gauge her reaction to your automations). :)

I love the outros, but as others have indicated, do what's best for your channel. We're here because of your amazing insight and brilliant work into the automated world. As much as it is a little fun, if it's harmful to your videos, we can do without. Alternatively, you can put them in the middle or up front, maybe less people will skip them

Outros are awesome. Sometimes I rewatch your movies only for them :)

I love the outros, definitely adds charm to your channel. But I definitely understand how it can affect your metrics. Do what’s best for the channel!

I absolutely adore the outro skits. They are so wholesome and funny. I think they really help brand your channel as just a normal, relatable, down to earth person with a family and whose products need to pass the wife approval factor. I would truly miss them if you decided to leave them out but would still watch your channel.

I love your outros and appreciate all you do. Do what's best for you and your family though. You won't lose any support from us...

I really like the outros! However, I understand that they can be extra work. I also understand how people clicking away can hurt the algorithm, which can affect your reach and, thereby, your bottom line. As much as I do enjoy them, I think it's ultimately a business decision where you need to do what's best for you and, ultimately, your family. I'll keep watching whatever you choose to do.

I think they make your channel very unique, nobody else does it like you do. Honestly you incorporate a lot of the same components of the outro throughout your videos which is awesome. So it probably wouldn't be missed too much if they were gone I guess.

The outros are the only part my wife watches with me :D My smart home approval ratings are about to take a hit but please do what you think will keep the channel going ♥️

I think your channel is the best and humor is a big part of it. Maybe you could make the second channel more sober and techie. Smarthome Solver could have more short and practical examples (and humor). Anyways, love your videos!!

Don't stress about it Reed. I think they're a warm and friendly way of getting the family involved but can't be easy to plan and film. Just do them as and when and if Ali's had some sleep! 👍 Keep up the great work chap

I personally love the outros and would be sad to see them go, but do what is best for the channel and algorithms.

Voted that I love them, but I'm commenting to also say I'm not going to be hurt if what is best for you is doing less of them. I always get a good kick out them, but I also want you to do what works for you. Keep up the great content!

I am a big fan of the outros. But as many have said if they are hurting the channel then do stop making them, your content is what keeps me here.

i really love your outros.. honestly, i started watching every one of your uploads just because of the outros.. hey that's just me.. but now i understand your trouble, do what you feel is necessary, i'll still watch all of your uploads, I'm hooked now 😄 or just randomly put an outro inside some videos which you feel like.. i really appreciate you asking your audience this or i would've been sad to not see outros in your videos.. i can't believe people click away before your outros.. that sounds quite hurtful

Hey! I wanted to get your opinion. How would you feel if we cut back the outtros so they weren’t in EVERY single video?
For years, we’ve done a “funny” outtro for every video. (some are funnier than others, we aren’t comedians)
We know that a lot of people don’t care about them because they click off of the video right when it appears, which hurts the video’s performance with the YouTube algorithm. They are also a lot of work and take time we could be spending on other videos.
Share your honest thoughts in the poll or the comments. I really value what you all think and want our videos to keep improving, so THANK YOU for your support!
