I wasn't talking about videos vs text, but about ways of explaining things. Some might learn better from MDN, others from Zed Shaw's Learn JavaScript The Hard Way, for example; neither is necessarily worse. I had that experience in intro to statistics in college; I found the classes and the accompanying texts (written by the teacher) confusing, and it wasn't until I got an alternative textbook that I got the concepts. Yet most of my peers seemed to do OK, even those who usually struggled more than me, including in other math subjects.
