They should just hire someone to explain these things. A video goes a long way.

- reitanqild 10y agoA video goes a long way. As long as there is a text with pictures for weird video adverse engineers like me. I actively avoid videos.
- iamatworknow 10y agoI don't think you're weird. Instructional or informational videos force their pacing on you. Text and images allow you to learn at your own pace, be it faster or slower than a video. Few things are more frustrating than having to skip back 15 seconds multiple times in a video because I didn't quite get something, or trying to hunt around ahead in the timeline because the current stuff being presented is trivial introductory fluff.
- RangerScience 10y agoI am the same. Give me text! I skip around all over the place, and can (occasionally) read (short) paragraphs in a glance. Videos and their enforced pacing :/
- reitanqild 10y agoSeems I'm not alone. 25 upvotes at the moment :-| Now I'm not against videos, I just want good text (not just transcripts) to be available for people like me.
