For me it's a great way to have some background noise while I work. I especially like railfan videos since they hit the sweet spot of: - loud enough to drown out other, outside sounds (big problem for me these last two years WFH in a city apartment) - consistent enough that they stop being their own distraction once you get used to it (hours of soothing air horns and crossing-guard chimes!) - cool way to see landscape/drone shots of parts of the world I might never visit - repetitive enough that any time I do take a mental break and actually focus on the video I don't feel like I've missed anything (my biggest problem with spoken-word videos / TV series / some music) This is a good example, plus I'm in totally love with those high-hood GP9s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRE_rsiqSoQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRE_rsiqSoQ Here are some channels I enjoy for their long-form videos: - https://www.youtube.com/c/DelayInBlockProductions https://www.youtube.com/c/DelayInBlockProductions - https://www.youtube.com/c/RailfanJunction https://www.youtube.com/c/RailfanJunction - https://www.youtube.com/c/RanOutOnARail https://www.youtube.com/c/RanOutOnARail - https://www.youtube.com/c/CoasterFan2105 https://www.youtube.com/c/CoasterFan2105 - https://www.youtube.com/c/CaliforniaRailfanner https://www.youtube.com/c/CaliforniaRailfanner - https://www.youtube.com/c/ThornappleRiverRailSeries https://www.youtube.com/c/ThornappleRiverRailSeries
