    Why does everything have to be a video? Write an article, wtf. I’m not watching a video with a clickbait title like this

      Agreed, but the reason why is this is how you make money. Videos can be monetized more easily.

        The problem with desperate monetization stunts like this video is that they rarely have any relevant content to show, and they are a formulaic output of mixing clickbait titles with 15min of inane fluff.

          But that’s not true for all channels. I quite like this one, and when I like the content, I’m a little less harsh about the clickbait because I understand that it may be required to make meaningful money on YouTube.

        You are right, but: Medium, Substack, Patreon, Kofi. Being a writer/blogger was a death sentence 10 years ago but the avenues for doing it are growing again.
