I'm not vain enough to think anyone else wants to see them
Well, all due respect, not everyone is like you, who's main occupation seems be to post snarky pointless criticisms. That's the second one you've made to me. You sound so sad.
There are dozen of different hobby messageboards where people link YouTube videos of their efforts.
It's a way of showing what can be done with a bit of imagination, which may inspire some to attempt something they previously thought beyond their capabilities.
Also pick any task you want to attempt and there'll be a video someone has made explaining how it can be achieved.
i'm not in favour of any "hobby" videos where the person who uploads it thinks they are some sort of a presenter. I don't appear or speak on any of mine (I'm sure you'll be pleased about that) I just let the video "do the talking" though I usually add some notes below.
Do me a favour, if you don't like something I post, just scroll down, I do that with your posts unless you've copied or referred to one of my posts and made a personal snarky comment to me.
Can you please give it a rest for everyone's sake.
There's been enough enough unpleasantness lately on this Forum - just accept that others have the right to comment - whether you like it or not - and move on.
You aren't new to the Forum even tho you have only just returned - you know how easily things escalate and then get completely out of hand. One of the reasons you stopped posting if memory serves. It's all pretty pointless and just annoys everyone.
Forget Snarky, Sad, Personal and the rest of it - like you say, scroll down - you don't have to respond to every post.
Your posts are interesting and sometimes helpful and your photos are beautiful - why not just continue in that vein ?
I'm sorry if you find this offensive or WHY but I don't think I am alone in getting pretty well pissed off with people using the Forum just for personal digs at others.
As said before, we are supposed to be adults on here.

Hmm..
I wish those who delight in making unnecessary snarky comments would act more like an adult. The first to me from the same person, was entirely personal, followed by the one on this thread.
I don't know how many times I have to say this, but I never make snarky comments in the first place.
But if someone makes one at me I'll let them know about it.
I may not stop them making them, there seems to be a lot of licence in that respect on this board, far more than on any other dedicated hobby board to which I subscribe.
Anyone else upload videos of their gardens and hobbies to YouTube?
Have been posting videos about my gardening on the youtube channel linked below for the last few years. My main idea originally was that it would be nice for me to be able to look back and see how my garden has been developing and a large portion of the videos are in playlists to facilitate how I think they might be useful for others as well with a lot just in a playlist for the flowers in bloom for a particular month with the idea being that people looking to plant flowers for pollinators can fill gaps in their own garden in those particular months.

Happy gardening!
I file photos of the garden by month and years on a hard drive, as a record
But as you say with a video you can compare how well or poorly some plants do.
It's interesting to see how much the weather influences how quickly or slowly the garden has come on when you take the following year's video.
I personally enjoy garden youtubers there's not enough good ones in my opinion.
Paul T World has contagious enthusiasm for his garden, I'd recommend checking his channel.
Dont see anything vain about it. Its just another avenue of expressing something your passionate about. Its about as vain as giving advice to anonymous gardners on an online forum.
I can’t say I don’t have the time, because I do, it’s more like I do not have the inclination to seek out worthwhile YouTube videos. Occasionally I’ll look for a video to help with a specific task I am undertaking, and almost always there’s something pertinent, but goodness me they’re ponderous. The cinematography is minimal, the commentary is dull and laboured, and never once have I felt inclined to forward them to others, but it doesn’t stop folk sometimes sending them to me. And then I look at the comments. Oh my goodness. Were they perpetual school truants? How dispiriting to read such vacuity, and misspelled vacuity as well.
In short, I am no fan of home made videos on YouTube.

I am not sure why you came back, none of my business, but I do wonder whether it might be due to the people you upset on another forum.
