Is this surprising to anyone? There are millions (tens of?) videos on youtube. Expecting all of the videos to conform to any individual's taste or even talking about "youtube videos" as if that's a canonical thing seems ludicrous to me.

Sure, I agree. My comment was in context of the "voice" as presented in the article, and how in some videos – from the same producers, no less – I find it enjoyable and in others I find it so annoying I can't continue watching regardless of other qualities such as whether or not the subject matter is interesting, production qualities, participants etc.
