I think a lot of people are only semi-literate, and many of them don’t realize it. They just think reading is kind of hard and uncomfortable, and don’t know why anyone would choose to do it.
You won’t find as many of them on a text-focused medium like here.
hmm, while I’m doing menial/mindless tasks i really like educational podcasts and audiobooks. i can pay attention just fine while doing yard work or driving to work. i find music doesn’t occupy my mind enough while doing things like that.
I will totally listen to episodes of many of Simon Whistler’s channels at work and not care if I remember the details of some random serial killer’s history!
Music has no new information though, that’s just for enjoyment. Some of us don’t have enough time in a day to do everything we want to do so you gotta hack it lol

I can’t imagine why I’d want to put on an informational video and not pay attention.
I listen to music at work.

Totally agree, if I’m hoping to retain anything.

I feel like Watching Videos are more entertaining.
