It is a job for him, he advocates for himself for a minimal amount of the video, like I get that it sucks that he has to do that, but we live in a capitalist society and he has to survive too, it doesn't mean he doesn't like what he does, it just means he also has to make money to survive
There was a time when people worked jobs and made videos to share something interesting. Sure it wasn’t broadcast quality, but it was a person sharing something to the world. Now people are just feeding the algorithm and their pocket because apparently there’s no other way. I get times are different, but it doesn’t make it right.
The video and information is very interesting nonetheless. CRTs also had a nice warm feeling, literally, because of that sweet radiation.
These people still exist, they are just harder to find
Big "nobody wants to work" energy
CRT screens did not blast you with radiation, the glass blocked it from hitting you.

I used to make Blender videos back in the day. I loved when people liked what I did or wanted to learn. Charging money for it would destroy the magic and make it a job and eventually I would make garbage like this to maximise the profit.
I deleted my YouTube account when I realised what it was becoming. I had no idea it would actually get much, much, much worse than I could ever imagine.
