That’s just wrong.
Why post it to youtube in that case? If you’re watching a video where the only the audio is relevant, why the fuck is it a video?

“Why isn’t this text?”
YouTube has more accessibility and reach.
“Then why isn’t it an audio file?!?!?!”
Fucking what? You seem to just be upset that this exists in a way people will access.

Going for personal attacks when you cannot think of a response? Peak intellect.

You called someone an ignorant prick in this thread. Appeals to decorum are off the table for you, fuckhead.

that wasn’t a personal attack.
a personal attack would be:
“man, are you just a dick or what?”
what they asked is simply a request for you to explain your motivations, since they seem nonsensical to the previous poster.
(and immediately jumping to “personal attack” when someone is trying to understand you doesn’t exactly imply “peak intellect” either. and btw, your snarky “peak intellect” <-- THAT’S a personal attack. phrasing it as a statement doesn’t make it less of an insult.)

Reach and convenience. Why do you think podcasts exist on YouTube when they could’ve as well been audio-only?
Besides, some people like to see the speaker, because it gives visual clues about what’s being said. Not everybody absorbs info efficiently through reading texts or just listening. Sometimes you need more than one way of recieving information.
