I edited out a bunch of talking from this because I genuinely feel like my asmr gets sloppier when chatting. I find I provide my very best when I'm concentrating on the visuals. Also, I apologize to those of you who find the background noise extremely distracting. I normaly make videos in my basement where its quieter, however right now my furnace is in need of service and is even noisier than my street is. So for the time being I'm forced to make videos upstairs and my house is very small and on a busy road. Just situational really. I could always hold off making videos but I enjoy it too much. So I'm posting these anyways in hope's some of you benefit from it regardless. :)
To listen while using other apps, switch the player to Picture-in-Picture (PiP) during playback — it keeps playing in a small floating window (the screen stays on).
To listen with the screen fully off, in-browser playback stops by YouTube's design. Open the video in the YouTube app to keep listening where background playback is supported (e.g. with YouTube Premium).
