/rant I really hate YouTube now. Everyone wants to put every bit of information in a 10+ min long video b/c 10 min videos get better ad rates. So they spend the first 4 min w/ a long ass 'intro' sequence on all videos, then pleading you subscribe and 'hit the bell' then plugging patreon, then some long backstory, then the gem of info you came for that could have been a tweet. Oh and all this is broken up by ads at the beginning and middle of the videos, it's a cesspool I refuse to pay for. /rant



It's like searching blog posts for recipes all over again.
