Yes I consume a ton of YouTube but that’s because I have a ton of professional and personal niche interests. It does take a ton of curation and just general awareness and education about this type of content to sift through the piles of shit but when you do there is real gold there. Also great for having in the background when I’m working on the PC.

Thank you so much for these recommendations. I added them all to my list

All good. I do the exact same thing with keeping things unread.
