I was just realizing that I pretty much never click a link to a video post on Lemmy. I think my reasoning is that it’s too hard to skim a video to see if it’s worth my time, whereas an article can be evaluated initially in a few seconds.
Which kind of links do you engage with more often?
Edit: If you are a small YouTube content creator and it looks like nobody wants to click on videos, consider creating a text version of your video which, granted, is a separate skill, but if you have a message to get out and want to reach people…
I’m more likely to click on a text link.
My laptop isn’t paired with my headphones so I seldom watch videos on this device. The speakers are pretty terrible.
My android tablet is what I use for videos. If the video has a clear title I can search, maybe I’ll do so but I need to know it will be worth my time.
