Interesting. This is a common consumer view. Since pure consumers aren't acquainted with anything but the best in the field, they demand very high quality of anything they witness. That makes sense.
At least part time content creators know that creation is harder - because that first step to actually doing something is mentally hard (pure consumers find it impossible). People will make crappy things before they make good things and they'll share them with each other.
Perhaps the problem is when pure consumers, seeking further stimulus, enter creator spaces. Or where part-creators accidentally expand the audience for their fellow creators into pure consumer spaces or more-consumer-than-creator spaces like HN.
If you are attempting make something from scratch that has a competitor on the markent now, why would you evern think someone would use your product when it is so clearly inferior to other offerings? Hope to attract business by being the cheaper option? That just means you're going to get the clients nobody wants.
There's a difference between showing your friends and family something, but opening up the entire public with posting to YouTube and asking "tell me what you think" means you must be pretty proud of it. If you were proud of the results from this, then just wow.
In full disclosure, I've spent many an hour in the chair of restoring film/video. I've written many a tool to help with this endeavor for internal use as well as used professional tools. I have beta tested software that later went to production release. I have sent content out to outsource the work and critically evaluated the results. If this was the result someone sent me after suggesting they could do the work, I would never send them the work as well as vocally tell others not to waster their time.
This isn't even good enough to send someone's 8mm footage to for viewing on modern devices let alone professional.
You’re writing this comment of yours and posting it publicly. Are you so incredibly proud of it? It’s riddled with typos and wouldn’t get you a passing grade in middle school.
That’s what I would say if I were being overly critical of someone sharing their opinion. It really doesn’t need this degree of hyperbolic value judgment. If it’s such rubbish it will easily be outcompeted for attention.
