    My numbers are going to be pretty bad, but when I'm doing work I usually throw a video on (like a Lofi live station or a dj live set) and leave it playing.

    lol, that doesn't count mobile though I think, because I am using a third party app that doesn't add to history either

    @JoshBent well that's not so bad I've seen some over 60 hours a week, do you listen to music?

    @JKyll yeah that's where most of my YouTube time goes to I'd guess.

    @JKyll I'll slap a YouTube video on my TV (if there aren't any live sports I'm interested in on) when I'm eating, but I also usually play YouTube videos to provide noise for me to fall asleep (TV set up with a timer).

    I'm quite shocked. I don't really listen to music, but I usually have a chrome tab open with my subscription feed. I really hope that's reason for my counts.

    @Stuxnet nice, I don't have Chromecast so I always put it on my laptop or phone. TV shows have become so shitty I prefer watching videos on my phone than turning on the TV.

    @HoloDreamer doubt that's it, because it clearly says "Time watched" not "Time spent"

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ok

    @JKyll yeah I didn't bother getting cable.

    I've got Hulu and Prime. If I want to watch anything else, I'll plug my laptop into my TV.

    @JoshBent sometimes, i skip ahead to the end of very long videos before closing and i see watch history bar records it as I watched till the point I skipped to. Maybe that's why.

    @HoloDreamer it only records what point you left off, it doesn't count the entire video as watched, that would be horrible for their business, since they also do CPM based on viewtimes I think.

    Mine are zero.. :/
    For work I'm logged in with diff account (which is not on my phone) & can't find this in the web version..
    I do use always when @ work & sometimes I forget over night, so the numbers would be wild.. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‡
