When I use the internet to learn, I don’t want to have to spend 2 minutes watching an advert, then try to decipher an accent I can barely understand whilst a 15 year old speed runs the task whilst seemingly skipping crucial steps in a video.

I want the steps written down. Maybe with diagrams.

I’m old. Learning is hard enough.

    I’d like to learn the game engine Godot but all the lessons are videos. It’s much harder to learn in the livingroom and write code when you’re learning from a video

      Oh. That is where all the useful information is. I have been struggling with it for weeks and finally managed to get something working. Is it done the right way? Who knows! Their documentation is sometimes rather less than helpful. If their website decides to behave. Sometimes it goes a little wonky, though it has been better the last couple weeks.
