How do you use Youtube?

keithtaylor yesterday

I use YouTube on average about twice a week. But almost exclusively for entertainment. Being music or stand up comedy.

Because, for learning about anything, I prefer to read. Unless, the video is vital to understanding the process or results.

In the past, I've published a few videos. But the tools that make it easy weren't around then. So it was more profitable for me to produce written content.

I'm a rather visual person so I can learn better while seeing things in a video than reading it. We all have different learning preferences I believe and it's important to find the one that works best for us.

Yes, I think that the best teaching material has text, and audiovisual versions so that learners can choose their most suitable option.

I use YT when I need to learn something like DIYs (tutorials), or when I want to check product reviews, download audiobooks, or every Tuesday, find music videos that I share on Hive for TTT.

I also use YT when I need a tutorial, especially in a field where visual indications are helpful.

Visual is better than reading steps or instructions :)

I use YouTube for learning but now I think there’s a time coming where people will prefer to use 3speak because of its added advantage and the future of the internet

3speak is a great alternative definitely.

I use Youtube to watch videos about the economy, sometimes about politics, sometimes to listen to music while I study or work. And sometimes I use it to watch short videos.

I like to browse youtube when I want to learn something. It's sometimes easier for me to learn from videos than from text.

It's true! I've learned a lot of things more easily on YouTube than by reading. My problem is that I don't have the patience to watch videos, I prefer to read most of the time. There are videos in which the youtuber goes on and on about information that could be given in 1 minute, but takes the guy 10 minutes.

I often tend to put 1.5 or 1.75 video speed to get through faster :-)

I use YouTube very little because I prefer written content to audiovisual content. I have an account and I subscribe to several channels of interest to me but I only log in very occasionally. I use it more to follow live events than to consume videos.

That's an interesting use case.

It's not weird. We are all different and it's totally normal that some things appeal to use more than others :-)

Mostly vids, but I sometimes do search for some music that I don't find on Spotiy too!

That's a good point, I don't really use Youtube for music but it's definitely a good use case.

I am the only one that watches Netflix and TV, Mrs T watches youtube vloggers. We are content consumers. But I am looking at creating AI videos on my mmonline account.

I have multiple accounts there. I used to upload videos recently, but after Hive, I'm using only 3spk for that. Also, I regularly check new music; it's one of the sources for my #newtunes post. Lately, I've also been watching podcasts, mainly from Hive. Otherwise, it takes a lot of time. I want to order a Family account, but I can't do so. Slovenia is the only country in Europe where this is not possible. I don't know why.
I never used it for looking at DIY videos, except for some software issues.

I've had a youtube account for years, but I'm not a content creator there. I usually only use it when I need to watch something to learn or ask questions, not to mention to watch music videos too.

But at the moment, with chatgpt and grok, my use of youtube has practically decreased a lot.

For example i learned how to change the bathroom toilet watching a video 😝

I used to create content about Japanese events, gaming, and my food journeys. Work is hitting me so bad so I don't have time to edit my videos anymore 😂. In my leisure time, I usually watch gugafoods, steven he, nigel ng, and music videos. Most food content creators are moving to Instagram.

For me youtube is a place of information. I use it to broaden my knowledge about things that I know little about

I use YouTube mainly to watch videos and learn new things.
Yes, I have an account, and I enjoy consuming content on a variety of topics.
However, I haven't started creating my own content yet.

I no longer keep an account and rarely use it. It's next to impossible to make money by creating material there!

I'm a consumer. I have a few subscriptions, but rarely bother to check what they've been publishing unless I find myself with a lot of free time at any point. I also listen to music on YT. Obviously, I may consume YT content when I research something too.
