I like when videos are as direct as this guy’s. Just straight to the point. No extra fluff, distracting skits or drama. It’s just him talking straight to the camera about things he’s passionate about.

Good, but why does it have to be video? Blog post or something I can effin' READ.

Because video creation can be a better source of revenue for creators than a blog post and some people still like to get paid for their expertise?

I can't see videos. Fuck me, right?

You really don't need any visual content you can just listen to it. The only thing he shows is a bit of code and unless you actually understand what you're looking at it's meaningless. It just says 0000000000006c

Yeah fuck you

And fuck anyone who thinks everything nowdays has to be a video. I'd like to fucking read.

Not gonna lie, you had me in the first half, bro.

It's just a guy talking 99% of the time and the few visuals that are in the movie are not required to understand the story. I'd just listen to it like a podcast. The guys voice and pronunciation probably beats text to speech from a blogpost with images.

Nah he's got a soporific voice, so I'm okay with it

I watched it while doing dishes and it was great for me. I like videos for things that don't require my undivided attention. If this were about something like programming I'd want code examples and would need to read to digest it.
