When somebody gets to criticizing "everything being a video tutorial these days", I get it, but there's a major factor they're missing. The people who would write something down are rarely the same people who make videos -- those who are would do well to include notes/transcripts. But regardless of whether it's your preference or not, discouraging the proliferation of video education is hostile to disabled people who struggle to read text. Chill.

Honestly, what they should be agitated and agitating over is the paucity of transcription and other accessibility tools made available by the corporate video platforms. If you're feeling the angst having to scrub through a video to find something, why don't you raise hell for Google asking why *still* nobody has decent control over or meaningful use of captions? Why you can't search them?
