Anyone else tired of people plugging their YT when an article would be better?

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 28 points 10 months ago

Normally yes, but MapMen are British gems - up there with Curious Droid, and the Red T-shirt guy

Not in this case, no

If it's YouTube, I just ignore the link.

I'm not spending 15 minutes getting information that would fit in a 90 second read at most.

Very much so. It's just so much more convenient with an article. You can quickly browse through it or search for keywords. If you're not demonstrating something än article is usually better than video imho

Yeah. Had this been an article I would've read / skimmed it. A video? Fuck that.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
