The pivot to video. I yearn for written tech guides or automotive process with well written instructions and detailed pictures. The fact that so much of the info once found in text is now pivoting to some chucklefuck holding his iPhone in one hand while trying to show you how to do a two handed job is extremely aggravating. Don’t even get me started on the need to sift through a 25 minute long tech video because you need to find that one step that you missed.

Video is so fucking low effort and annoying.

    Text guides and video guides both have their place depending on what is being taught and the needs of the learner. What makes a guide suck or not isn't the media format but whether the guide was made by someone who wants to teach people or by someone trying to make "content".

      needs of the learner.

      Very fair point, my gripe is because of my own learning style for sure.
