    For something like this a simple web page with a table seems like a much better way to present the data than a video. Don’t really want to watch a six minute video where a simple table could be viewed in 30 secs.

      Isn’t that just the sad state of the internet right now? Your complaint applies to nearly any “How-To” I need to look up. I want to know how to say, disable collapsing windows in Windows 11. I’d rather read 5 numbered steps in text, then try to get through a 10 minute video that starts out “It’s your boy, Chaotix, coming at’cha!”.

      Nope, everything needs to be a video for the views and internet fame.

        Easy there, boomer. Kids these days can’t following things without flashy graphics /s

        FFS, the worst for me is coding tutorials?!? Really? You really expect me to retype all the shit you are showing in your IDE? I 100% can’t get that shit. 2nd worst is those shits that post their code as screenshots in text so you can’t cut and paste.

          “Today’s video is made brought to you by our sponsor”. I really hate sponsor call outs in the middle of a video, patreon makes sense though, paying the creator directly to do what they do.

            At least for Android, YouTube Vanced had been awesome at auto skipping that crap as well as into and outros. Pretty crazy the difference it makes.

              Good to know! I generally watch youtube on my desktop PC, but perhaps there is something similar plugin wise for Opera.

          Followed up the information you actually where looking for, summed up in about 20 seconds. Then the outro.
