Extactly. 30 minutes videos is equivalent to 5 minutes reading. Blogs/tutorials >> videos. Always.
Especially true for these overedited videos that have an intro, a random interruption in the middle asking you to sign in their patreon, a long explaination which goes around the issue without answering it. If I had to sign in every youtuber's patreon I'd be broke by now. I have stopped to use youtube as much as before, since video assays have to be about 40 - 1:30 hours long. Well when I had to discuss my dissertation I was given 15 minutes. Also whem I'm asked to present a powerpoint I have about 15 minutes to 20. Youtubers can take whatever they want to do it, apparently. But if you're talking for so long switch from an assay format to a documentary format please. That is the prooer way to handle it.
