    at 26:10 it says redhat ships rhel and fedora. I’m 99% sure this is just wrong. Redhat doesn’t maintain fedora, fedora is just a fork of rhel maintained by the community.

      I feel the same way. I feel like I would love his subject matters he picks, but he’s being so disrespectful of the viewers time that I can’t stand it. Just the clickbait title alone is enough to put me off.

        I’m surprised to find so much Veritasium hate on Lemmy. I always thought Derek and the team did a good job as far as edutainment goes. I also don’t like clickbait titles, but it’s worth noting that all of the videos are a real production with a crew of people who work full time and deserve to get paid.

          I guess his flavour of tainment just doesn’t jam well with me. Like I said, it’s not the subject matter, but the content just feels needlessly padded. Compare this to videos by Tom Scott, CGP Grey, Matt Parker, Steve Mould, etc. Those videos are far more dense with content It reminds me of how mythbusters gets so much better once you take out the narrator and the endless recaps…

          Regarding clickbait - to me a title this one is just another symptom of that disregard for the viewers time. Being coy and mysterious about the subject matter to lure people in. And yeah, hat’s probably why it works.

          I agree that the production values are incredibly high. But I just can’t stand being treated like a simpleton who needs drama to be tricked into watching videos, it feels very patronising.
