From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

To be honest, complaining that "half of the information" is in a video form is so stupid. Stick to the written sources and be happy that the other half of the information is supplied the way you want it.

Obviously there is a market for video content, and there is probably as many people liking it as disliking it. I am a dyslexictic person that can understand and remember way better when I am spoon fed the information instead of struggle through a long blog post or news site.

Please be open minded that we are different.

Video gets higher engagement. If you want your information to be consumed, video is a better bet.

That will not stop every video from having a top comment complaining about it though.

I prefer written content myself. But, as you say, I am happy for content in whatever form I can get it. I did not pay for it. How it is generated and shared is not up to me.

Soon I hope, we will have a bot that transcribes every video. Then that can be the top comment instead of the endless complaining.
