click video only if selector text is present - Puppeteer NodeJS

I have a code snippet that once goes to a youtube link, it gets videos to comment on by getting the links and then opening them in a new tab. I'm trying to get it to be so that it only gets the video link and comments if this selector is present and has the text of it say a number less than 5. (uploaded [5 - 1 minute(s)/second(s)] ago), if there aren't any videos that suitable, then the page will reload after 10seconds, and try again until 3 total videos have been found (over the time of running the script).

I tried using catching but it doesn't work as I don't exactly understand how to do this very well in my situation.

here is the selector of the time uploaded ago (as defined):

uploadedago : "#metadata-line > span:nth-child(4)",

(that's in another file called "constants>selector>index.js".)

here is the code that I'm working with:

// times the selector must say on the page
const uploadtimes = ("5 minutes", "4 minutes", "3 minutes", "2 minutes", "1 minute", "seconds", "seconds")

         try
         {
            if (tweet.includes("shorts"))
            {
               await pages.goto(tweet.replace(/shorts/, "watch"));
            }
            else
            {
               // console.log(tweet);
               await pages.goto(tweet);
            }
            try
            {
               await likeVideos.likeVideos(pages);
            }
            catch (error)
            {
               console.log(error);
            }
            await pages.bringToFront();
            await pages.waitForTimeout(4000);
            await pages.evaluate(() =>
            {
               window.scrollBy(0, 550);
            });

            try
            {
               await pages.waitForSelector(selector.catchErrorInComment,
               {
                  timeout: 4000
               });
               console.log("Can't Comment");

               await pages.close();
            }
            catch
            {
               await pages.waitForSelector(selector.inputComment,
               {
                  timeout: 4000,
               });

               await pages.evaluate(() =>
               {
                  document.querySelector('#simplebox-placeholder').click();
               });
               spinners.update('comment',
               {
                  text: 'collecting comments to copy .. ',
                  color: 'yellow',
               });

               if (config.copycomment && config.ai == false) 
               {
                  await copycommnet.copyComment(pages, spinners, config);
               }else if(config.ai){
                  await aiCommented.createComments(pages , spinners ,title, config)
               }
               else if(!config.copycomment && !config.ai)
               {
                  await manualComment.manualComment(pages, spinners, config);
               }else{
                  console.log(" Check Your Configuration")
               }
               await pages.waitForTimeout(config.delay * 1000);
               await pages.close();
               spinners.succeed('comment',
               {
                  text: 'Success commenting',
                  color: 'yellow',
               });
               Logger.log('./logs/succesCommenting.log', config.usernamegoogle, tweet, 'success')
            }
         }
         catch (e)
         {
            await pages.close();
      
               Logger.log('./logs/errorCommenting.log', config.usernamegoogle, tweet, 'failed', e)
          
         }
         await wait(config.delay);
      }

      spinners.add('delay',
      {
         text: `wait .. we are delaying for ${config.delaycomment}`,
         color: 'yellow',
      });
   }
   spinners.add('done',
   {
      text: `COMMENTS ADDED, FINISHING UP ..`,
      color: 'green',
   });
   await browser.close();
}

startApp(config, Config(paths,config,executablePath("chrome")));

function readLog()
{
   const data = fs.readFileSync('./logs/succesCommenting.log', 'utf8');
   return data;
}
