Just a brief rant:

I’m seriously getting tired of looking for some information about a rig, antenna, etc and being directed to nothing but YouTube videos. It seems everyone wants to be a famous influencer.

Just look at the main QRZ.com page. It’s all links to YouTube videos.

Sometimes videos help but it’s become absurd - especially when it takes less time to read the information than watch some video. Oh, if you’re making some stupid face and pointing at something, I doubt I will ever watch the video.

    I think the converse is a big part of why you see so many videos. It’s a lot easier to ramble in front of a camera than it is to actually write a half-way decent web page for most topics.
