this video just screams she hit record on an iPhone and called it a day

You’re actually totally right. I just watched her IG post and she literally just says “we did it ourselves” like she’s proud that it was homemade and low budget/effort.

The way she seems to not give a single F about success…. Gaga please never take any notes from her

i miss so much her music videos from the born to die era

What I'll say is the offputting nature of the video fits the song's tone.

The ensemble was intriguing and almost bewitching at first, but I thought it ran its course in the last third.

I mean the video sucks, but you think it’s any lower effort than her sitting in front of in front of her MacBook drinking  Mountain Dew? To your original point about what happened to her visuals, nothing much really. Low effort/lo-fi has always been part of her brand since the start, since Lizzy Grant, and still very much is with her picsart singles covers, selfie promos, etc. They’re just more frequent and harkens back to her Lizzy Grant days.

It’s a cute video, a little throwback to the old Lana/Lizzy videos at the end, it does fit the song well 

Also she said it was a homemade video on her insta post so no one should be surprised or disappointed

Much better than I expected, something different to what she usually does, I'm sat!

I mean you're comparing her debut, before she was famous, to now where she has connections, money and a team

I know her first videos were low budget, the problem isn't the budget, there's just absolutely no substance to this video in the same way as her old ones

at least drinking mountain dew in a wig and shades has some sort of style and intention you can analyse

Whether or not it’s from her debut, it’s still a part of her vision language, one that has been a mainstay of her career. 
 

I don’t agree that there is no substance. It’s few substance, sure. She’s just meandering in her home and cooking, but it fully suits what she’s singing about. I don’t see how this video is any different from something like Blue Banisters, where is painting, riding a tracker, cooking at home. She’s been doing this for years and years and years. 
 

Lana has always done lo-fi MV and she will continue to do so. She has also done bigger productions MV for nearly every album rollout and she’ll likely continue to do so as well. She’s always done both.

but when she does lo-fi, she usually does it well

this video is very poor and low effort

Honestly i'm just obsessed with this so much. She really just does whatever she wants.
