I have never felt the need to use YouTube for anything aside from classic comedy clips, music and trailers. So YouTube personalities like these pass me by. I'm one of those types who instantly closes a video if I hear commentary or talking over it. I don't want to hear that shite.

However, I have watched one LTT video before when doing some electronic engineering classes, and we were shown one to explain some thing I can't remember. I do remember saying the guy seemed like a prick, to the chagrin of others in my class

Well, guess who feels vindicated today! Me!

I'm like you, grown up without YT and I rarely watch it, for some video clip, or when I need to check how to disassemble my laptop or washing machine. I never watched a "YouTuber" or never ever went to twitch

I've never actually used twitch before. Ever.

I'm getting old...

But yeah, if I need a walkthrough on how to do something, I'll always prefer written instructions/guides.
