100 YouTube subs after 6 videos. Is that an indication of quality?

So you have several videos on mock interview questions, but instead of being able to skim the video titles and knowing which ones are that the word "mock interview" appears at a seemingly random place in the video's title.

Valid Parentheses (LC 20) Mock Interview - No Decision

VR Mock Interview- Nearly Sorted Array - Success

Coin Change - VR Mock Coding Interview - #3

Honestly the titling is just outright bad. I don't know what "LC 20" means and I didn't realize that "VR" was in reference to the animation style, and don't understand why that's important or relevant.

Putting: Success, No Decision, #3, etc in the title isn't clear what it is, or why I'd want to watch these where the candidate did NOT succeed. The whole format is just strange.

Bigger issue is I cannot read the handwriting in particular in this one:

Dam, this is awesome, concrete feedback. I'm only realizing right now how crappy the titles are, going to address this asap.

WRT the handwriting: I may end up switching to a typed format since its supported in workrooms and everything is remote nowadays anyway.

My thoughts with watching the failures: it helps to see what doesn't work during an interview.

Ex. So many people jump straight into coding before even thinking about the problem or asking clarifying questions. This is a big red flag during interviews. It might make the value prop clearer if I add some commentary over the failures to explain what went wrong and why.

I'm still trying to suss out whether it makes sense to post the failure vids, so thanks for pointing that out
