    could this be an article instead of a video? I’m not spending 32 minutes watching this, tbh

      This has to be my favorite thing about Jeff Geerling vs other YouTube channels, he’ll make an accompanying blog post to go with each of his main channel videos that is effectively an annotated text version of the video with appropriately embedded images and links.

        For me, they’re captivating for about 5 minutes. Then the dry humor and constant cries of outrage become irritating. He could probably make 15-20 minute, info-dense videos without all the extra “personality”.

          Similarly Doug DeMuro could make 5 minute car reviews but he’s really good at the long-form ones and has become a millionaire because of it. His quirks and features are not for everyone, but a majority of people like it, quirks and all.

          I think Technology Connections is just like that, and I respect that you’re one of the people who may not like the personality part, but the information is pretty solid.
