Do you have good examples of where this knowledge is on yt?
When I want to learn something like a woodworking technique video does help immensely to see someone do the physical thing they describe with the materials to get a level of understanding. Like oh that's how you position the wood on a jig to use your table saw like a jointer (an expensive tool I don't have). Rarely do I need to see the person/tools in play for anything software related.
Text is king for me when learning things regarding computers. Granted I learned CS the old fashioned way, in a lecture hall before google existed. I imagine for beginners maybe getting down early concepts is easier with video?
