Coding Video Channels

[Jason]

Which ones do you find interesting? What do you consider very good ones? Do you watch any paid stuff? What would you pay for? How much would you pay?

Very very few. I find they inevitably explain the same point 3 times over and rarely explain any of what's interesting. They'll explain what they're doing but not why (which is infinitely more useful to me, your mileage may vary)

Of the videos I _have_ seen, a scary percentage of them are people I'd never want to be working with in the real world. I hope it's just unlucky experience on my part but I've encountered a lot of 'those who can't do, teach'.

I've paid for one course on Udemy and one course only. I never even finished all of it.

The only coding channel I've ever subscribed to is freeCodeCamp and I've never actually sat down and watched a full 1+ hour video on the channel.

Suffice it to say, that coding videos are apparently not my type of learning.

I suppose it depends on the instructor. Well, I am only acquainted with BroCode and it's awesome, but he might be one of the better ones.
