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.

    Think there’s some browser extension which gives you the subtitles as text. Way faster to skip the BS. But yeah I feel you.

    The worst are the autogenerated ones from Stackoverflow or whatver questions. Like it’s scraped text put in video automatically. Like really? That’s what we’ve come to? Lmao.
