Man, am I glad these video formats exist. When you have ADHD, reading is agony. Any information I need, I look up whether there’s a video about it. Reading is the last resort.

For me it’s the opposite, actually. I can focus much more easily while reading than watching a video.

  I can read in 3 to 5 minutes the same amount of info that would take a really well written and edited video at least 30 to 45 mins to present. I sympathize with neurodivergents, but reading is a super power. Sure, videos and pictures are incredibly useful for particular things. And video is amazing for entertainment, or when it’s infotainment and you don’t actually need to learn or retain any of the content. But video could never hope to compete with the data transfer rates of well structure written word.

    Same, but the exact opposite. [insert out-of-ass numbers here]
