I’d be happy if people stopped posting poorly shot and barely edited video tutorials and explaining material to YouTube. You used to be able to search for information about products and find information now your at the whim of people posting YouTube videos with enough description info to find it, usually it will actually be a repost by someone who found it relevant to the context your actually looking for. So much stuff I’ve been watching on YouTube lately would be much much better as a series of pictures with some text explaining each one, it’s especially frustrating to see this sort of thing in online forums.
People have started to just post tear down videos or assembly instructions as an embedded video with little (sometimes no) additional information! I have to download the videos and scrub back and forth to get a decent look at small parts or re-listen to their explanations that could have been read and understood first time, not to mention how often I have to go to YouTube, watch upwards of 3 or 4 advertisements triggered by scrubbing around a video only to work out that the video doesn’t even have the information I’m interested in. It’s driving me mad and I want it to stop. Insert your own meme about Eternal September here obviously.
