From the YouTube CEO: Our big bets for 2025, TV is now the primary device (blog.youtube)

For more and more people, watching TV means watching YouTube.

One of those. I've stopped entirely watching regular TV. I watch some movies and a show now and then, but mostly YouTube creators.

For a while I've felt modern TV shows make me feel dumber. Editing is swift, there's no time to think. The same topics get repeated to death.

Compare that to say this[1] BBC Horizon episode on color theory. Calm, gives you time to think, interesting topic that's not widely discussed in regular circles, clear and illustrative demonstrations.

Some of the channels I watch are mostly for entertainment. But most are more informative in one way or another.
