    Yeah. Video makers are chasing a profit incentive. We can’t hace written guides because of neoliberalism. Or possibly they are out there but search engines have de-prioritized that content.

    If we had a profit incentive to just… release the script of that youtube video - as a written guide… we could have what we need.

      Transcripts do exist on YouTube to be fair, in the video description you can choose to load the transcript which has timestamps and is automatically generated for all (?) YouTube videos. Though this doesn’t solve the issue as there will be times where you have to watch the footage, it certainly helps in skipping to the right time
