    I’m done with Windows and YouTube videos that should have been a written post.

      Amen! Can we please have more written posts on the internet again? It’s much easier to search and follow along.

        Nobody has the attention span to read them - as proven by the declining buy-in on YouTube videos longer than a TikTok reel - let alone write them. Written media will continue to rapidly decline.

        I feel like a I’m an old dinosaur yelling at the clouds because I can’t stand most video content. There’s a time and place for it but an 8 paragraph op-ed would suffice for content like this.

      I mean yes, but there’s way better exposure from online videos. Things like this 100% should have an accompanying post though.

      I just jumped ship completely (last was dealing with scanner & printer) with windows, where can I find replacements for the 5 people I “follow” on youtube (ukraine war reports & beginner chess)? I mean is there even an alternative?

        Mastodon for non-traditional journalism and traditional journalism supplemented with blogs and newsletters is what I go with.
