I am not someone who spends much time on YouTube at all, perhaps a few hours a year. But after looking at that channel it just seems to be some line drawn images with a poem read in the background. If it’s not autogenerated content, I bet it absolutely could be by someone on HN.
Comparatively, a suggested video came up below when I was checking out the red frost channel, and I ended up watching most of it. Some guy restoring a vintage mechanical watch from start to finish, which seemed to be (to me) high quality content. The person seemed to know a ton about watch movements and I learned a lot.
Not saying the red frost channel should be banned or anything, but imo it’s not too different than the guy auto posting stack overflow questions and answers, just replace stack overflow with poetry.

- JadedBlueEyes 4y agoThis is super dismissive of both the hard work put into the content and the people that want to listen to poetry, short stories and even entire books. Voice acting is difficult and expensive work, and this person is putting out narrations of anything from Sun Tsu's Art of War to Hercules: The Twelve Labours, along with illustrated narrations of short stories and poems for free. If people will pay five pounds for a copy of the very hungry caterpillar, there is value in this work. Don't dismiss it just because you don't understand it or like it.
