Didn't really hurt but more like sting. I published a popular video and someone wrote they needed to switch from their usual 2x speed watching videos to 1x because of my accent.

I get it, English is my 4th language so it won't be very smooth. But I've been using it for 99โ„… of my conversations since I moved to Korea 3 years ago and I feel I'm better in it than almost everyone I interact with here.

Don't worry. People that watch videos at 2x can be considered to be insane.

Ah yes, I forgot folks with ADHD are also insane. /s
