People have kinda shrugged Whoflix since he went on a temper tantrum, but I haven’t heard people praise his edits much regardless.

Oh, agreed. I was actually disappointed to find he was the only full show fan-editor, as I don’t agree with him on a good deal of things. I only settled on him because we just wanted to skim through the classics as quickly as we could.

Overall they are solid edits, but for me personally, I would’ve liked as much Doctor in the Tardis as possible and he cuts a lot of that out for the story of the week. Scenes like Leela and K-9 playing chess are the type of bits I want to watch the old series for, but his edits are much more “Let’s just get through the plot”

His edits also vary in length which can get tedious, as it makes it harder to bingewatch. You don’t want to dive into a 45 minute episode and then get stuck on one that is and hour and a half. Honestly, in many cases, I feel like scenes could just be sped up to get through them quicker and still receive the same impact.
