Step one: ignore all video guides because I'd rather read about tech at the pace that I read, not at the pace that someone presents it.

Meh, everyone has different preferences, I'm firmly on the side of the written word myself, but I don't mind the occasional video presentation of something lol

I don't mind a video for a review. But for instructions, I want to be able to easily skim and skip over things that I already know or that don't apply to me.

Why tell everyone that you don't like videos or what this person on YouTube is doing with their time?
